Overclocking my CDRW Drive?????

Ok, I have a S&F 6x4x24x CDRW (SAF CD-RW6424A) and I just installed CloneCD 2.8.3.1 to back up my Office 2000 discs. The writer info page correctly detects my CDRW but it also said CloneCD does not use that info. In the Copy image to CD menu, I can manually select the write speed. For the heck of it, I selected 8x instead of 6X. It just finished burning and the CD seems to work fine. Did I just overclocked my CDRW???
 
I don't think you did. Earlier I read a review of an Aopen 12x10x32 drive(at tomshardware) and he said that even though Nero allowed him to select 10x cdr writing speed, which the drive does not suppport, it only wrote the cd at 8x speed, which it does support.
