Make my dvd-rom drive faster.

Yeah, you heard the title. I'm sick of having a 24x burner that maxes out at 2-3x with Roxio. Any suggestions on fast programs, or tweaks to increase burning speed?

I also heard that SATA dvd-rom drives are crazy fast, and if so, do you guys think it would be worth it?

Today's drives logic contains advanced Artificial Stupidity (TM) algorithms:

1. Have some coffee while I spin up, VROOM VROOOM
2. Oh wait nigga, I ain't reading this shit so fast
3. Have some coffee while I spin down, oopsies
4. Yay! I can read 4 KB of it! Let's try a bit faster...
5. Go to step 1.
