Kenwood UCR-421 True-X 72x ▀ The Fastest CD Rom Drive On The Planet Earth

Continuing on the topic of relics from the past,
I stumbled upon a unique 72x CD-ROM drive that easily outperforms 56x drives spinning at a crazy 11,000 RPM.
This technology allows the device to split the laser beam into seven independent beams, reading seven tracks simultaneously.
It achieves whopping transfer rates of around 8-10 MB/s without increasing spin noise [staying at ~5,000 RPM].
LGR, a well-known vintage tech YouTuber, reviews it in his signature style. Take a look.
