Transfer rate ''HD DVD < DVD < CD'' Wii easier to program than Xbox360 Fixed ver 2.00 |
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha....
What are you talking about CD transfer rate isn't faster than DVD. Don't tell me you think because CD's fastest drives are around 50x and DVD's around 20x....
lol
Generation | Base | Max | |
---|---|---|---|
(Mbit/s) | (Mbit/s) | × | |
1st (CD) | 1.17 | 65.62 | 56× |
2nd (DVD) | 10.55 | 210.94 | 20× |
3rd (BD) | 36 | 432 | 12× [2] |
The DVD drive on the Xbox 360 is rated at 7x at the centre to 12x at outer edge, the Bluray drive on the PS3 is rated at 2x
Let's assume maximum 56x transfer for CD (outer edge) and what, 24x for the inner circle?, and work this out...
CD = 28.08 - 65.52 = 46.8mbit
PS3 = 72mbit
Xbox 360 = 73.85 - 126.6mbit Average = 100.225mbit
I've actually been pretty tight on the Xbox 360 here as since the transfer rate is variable, assets that need it will be placed on the outer edge of the disc, and assets that don't need to be loaded as fast say for streaming and music would be placed at the inner edge. With the Playstation 3 your stuck with 72mbits wherever your data is on the disc. Not only that but seek times on Bluray drives are much much higher than on DVD drives.
Conclusion? Leave being clever to people with facts to back up their answer ;)
