1.1Overview
PC users who want to backup their CD normally have go through
many steps by turning on their computer, launching the software,
setting up various parameters, and tiding up their computer some-
times up to one hour to get a CD backup. Obviously, a standalone
CD-ROM duplicator will easily resolve the little inconvenience and
drawback mentioned above.
There are some standalone SCSI type CD copier on the market, but
for those PC user who already have an IDE CD-ROM drive and an
IDE CD-R/RW drive, the only solution of having the standalone CD
duplicator is buy a new set of SCSI CD-ROM drive and the CD-R/
RW drive to assemble one.
ACARD Technology wants to help the PC users to protect their IDE
investment(s) by introducing the first standalone IDE CD duplicator
ARS-2020 Copy Smart, which allow the PC users putting their IDE
CD-ROM drive and CD-R/RW drive into a smart standalone
machine.
The ARS-2020 Copy Smart have its own switching power supply
(AC 110V~230V) which are special designed to provide the steady
power which required by the laser burning operation of the CD-R/
RW drive. Four simple pushbuttons panel is designed to provide copy
modes selection and one button easy copy operation.
And ARS-2020 Copy Smart have special designed, a very powerful

fan installed which can keep it cool to protect your CD drives.
ACARD technology further add more values to PC users by making
the ARS-2020 Copy Smart connectable to a PC host computer, this
allow the PC users copy their valuable data from their PC to ARS-
2020 Copy Smart. A bonus Ultra SCSI add-on adapter, an ARS-
2020 SCSI interface extension and two duplication software are
provided by ACARD technology without additional cost. With the
optional True-50 50X (or 56X) CD-ROM drive, the ARS-2020 Copy
Smart users now have a 50X-plus Ultra SCSI CD-ROM, this will
make the ARS-2020 Copy Smart users a world class 50X Ultra
SCSI CD-ROM club member with just a minimum cost.
All this can be only possible by the ACARD continuous development
of both IDE and SCSI RISC chip and the patented SCSIDE
technology. The SCSIDE technology is a highly integrated System
On Chip (SOC) design based on a RISC IDE, a RISC SCSI and high
speed RISC CPU for two way SCSI-IDE command and data
translation. The RISC CPU command set is further implemented by
a flash ROM which provide the plug-and-play ATAPI drive function.
