I think I should shoot it........
I expected a little more out of the burst rates
it's on it's own IDE channel ffs, or am I expecting too much?
and the bastard wouldn't even bench on Madden '06
maybe a deal with SafeDisc4? or a combo of SD4/HP?
don't DVDs burn at 16x max?
That's a benchmark of an Audio CD.Quote:

wanted to see some more benches, hopefully from different RWs
Well my Lite-On has some pretty good numbers I suppose. Though I can't be sure as I'm not 100% sure of all that I'm looking at there...

However, I'm sure it's time to chuck this Sony DVD-Rom down the hall and buy another one. :sick: :sick: :sick:

Well I just put in an old data cd not even sure where i got it from but its funny to see different results from 2 drives the older liteon812@832 vs. the benq1640.Prefer scanning dvd for errors myself...:)
But why? Just check out the good burst rate of that Sony! :OQuote:

we'll see how it goes
if this one runs shitty,
then I'm just gonna take the plunge and get a Plextor :dry:
Why don't you get the NEC? We've been recommending it for quite some time.

yeah, I know, and had considered it, but.....Quote:

I do think though that HP fucked it up in one way or another,
so I can't really say that I blame NEC
and....I will be buying another RW,
perhaps it will be the 3550, unless the Liteon really impresses me,
or I have oodles of cash to spare for a Plextor :shifty:
here's the Liteon, fresh out of the box....

btw, anyone have a clue as to why my IDE channels read wrong?
channels 1:2 and 1:3? what the hell? should be 1:0 and 1:1
I'm thinking it's because of old virtual drives, but that's just a guess.....
