I thought the disks would shatter if spun much above 42x ...
But I was told that many moons ago so maybe my information is outdated. Or maybe it was just never accurate.
I mean, I think technically the "x" is the read speed, and not necessarily indicative of what the maximum RPM is.
Ah, I was always told that ##x was how many times faster than some classic model of cd drive the disk was spun.
