Some of the stuff about C2 was bollocks and was removed.
Information about the cache setting received some improvement:
:3. Determine if your drive caches audio data
:If ripping with the C2 setting unchecked isn't helping it could be that the "Drive caches audio data" setting needs to be checked. This is especially true if you notice that any portion of the Error correction indicator lights up extremely quickly and the Status dialog only indicates that there were sync errors or indicates no errors at all.
:
:So long as the Status dialog is able to report read errors in addition to sync errors, changing the "Drive caches audio data" setting is not necessary. There are quite a few drives that actually don't cache audio data and checking this setting will do nothing but slow down the ripping process; it will not make your rips any more secure. It is 100% safe to rely on EAC's "Detect Read Features" routine to determine whether your drive caches audio data.
Any feedback is welcome. Remember, the absl FAQ belongs to all of us.
