Why does the Speed Reader sometimes wait before ejecting a disc?

0

The Speed Reader processes discs in the order they were loaded starting from the top of the input bin stack(s) and working down. This makes it significantly easier to return discs to their correct case when importing is complete. The Speed Reader uses two DVD/CD-ROM drives to improve throughput. If two discs are loading simultaneously, and the second disc finishes before the first, the Speed Reader will not eject it until after the first import completes. In order to minimize waiting time Kaleidescape recommends separating CDs and DVDs because CDs usually import faster than DVDs. A scratched or dirty disc may take exceptionally long to import or may fail to import altogether. In order to prevent these discs from blocking overall progress you may configure the Speed Reader to abort an import after one hour elapses. This selection is made from the Components tab of the Installer Web Utility.
