 | | With Mount Rainier, the drive formats the media on its own, without the need for software, and lets you write data to the disc shortly after formatting (also called de-icing) begins, typically within a minute. |
 | | According to the Mount Rainier standard, drives must also be able to write and retrieve data in 2KB increments rather than the 64KB or 32KB blocks required by current CD and DVD standards. |
