Außerdem beherrscht das Laufwerk für die Datenübertragung z.B. mit dem C128 auch den sogenannten Burst-Modus. Dieser überträgt die Daten im Optimalfall etwa 30 mal schneller (9.000 Bytes/s) als das herkömmliche Diskettenlaufwerk VC-1541 am C64.[In addition, the drive also supports the so-called burst mode for data transfer, for example with the C128. Ideally, this transfers data about 30 times faster (9,000 bytes/s) than the conventional VC-1541 floppy disk drive on the C64.]
