Here's another test of the 7241S. Its buffer has been acting somewhat erratic. More so than the 7200S. I realize this is typical of the Optiarcs, but this one is a bit different to say the least ;)
Not looking too shabby.
12X United Arab Emir batch:

LOL! The next one is not a HOF!
12X iHAS424(7241S) The dye has a curious imperfection to which I have never seen a Genuine TY exhibit! Only The JVC discs. This batch has had 3 of them... I immediately through those away. But I may just allow this one to squeeze through the cracks LOL!

Here's what the disc looks like, from the last scan. The white line is an example of the imperfections direction, throughout the entire disc. Very faint marks. But enough to cause high failures. CRC/Surface scan passed 100% :)
I think they are stress marks from the pressing process. There is a triangular knotch, and an imperfection running inline from that mark.

Oman7,
Select the C1/C2-PI/PO Test, instead of the Read Test. It will give you a good picture of how good the surface of the DVD or CD is. The Read Test doesn't do very much at all. I've never seen one that wasn't all green.

Oman7,
That be to one. The Read Test is all but useless! I've been reading all the reviews of the Asus DRW-24B1ST. The only complaint is that you can't manually set Bitsetting. The Drive does it automatically, when you burn a +R DVD. The Drive itself gets pretty high marks, everywhere. I sold the 20x and have two of the DRW-24B1ST drives coming next week.

P.S. Laughed mu a$$ off at Fred and Edna! :)

Oman7,
There should be a Kangaroo Court type fine for playing with the colors with Photoshop on this thread. It should be all green, not black. Where's the grid? LMAO!!
Here's a review of the Drives I'm getting!

I'm not sure why it did that. Perhaps it has something to do with windows 7. I know the jitter test doesn't perform like it did on XP. It runs MUCH slower on vista/7 than XP...
Virtually nothing was shopped on those posts. Completely genuine ;)

Oman7,
My apologies then. I just assumed that you changed the colors. Check your emails, I just sent you the latest Nero DiskSpeed 5.0

Here's another beautiful "United Arab Emir" batch burned by the 7241S at 12X.
This one however was very shopped. At least the imagery... ;)

Fisrt burn with the H drive, scanned on H drive.
First burn with the I drive, scanned on I drive.
Remarkably similar performance, if you ask me, and these Verbs aren't the best I've ever had. And the drives haven't even broken in yet! Nice quiet drives too. Both burned at 12x and scanned at 8x. I can't figure out why no Jitter test. It's turned on in the Advanced, and performs the test, after the scan, but it doesn't show??? I'm liking these Asus DRW-24B1ST drives Thanks for the tip GM!

Oman7,
These are the DVDs I got from Rob, so I don't know! They had no wrapper. They look pretty good to me though!

I would bet that they were made in United Arab Emir discs. They always scan like that or better ;) Taiwans are good, but the others scan substantially better. They all play well of course ;)

@bigwill68
Yeah those spikes always seem to pop up to mess up a burn. Still only 69 PIFs not too shabby!.

Speaking of nero scans LOL!
Here's an original TYG02 silver printable. Been sitting on a few of those. Burned it disc to disc from iHES108 BD drive, to my iHAS424 @ 8X. Rather high Pi E, but not enough to concern me ;)

I hate to jump in right in the middle here as I have been trying to avoid you guys for a while, lol, but your scan caught my eye Oman. I just purchased some Value Line TYs (JVC TYG03) and the first scan blew my mind. It was almost identical to yours. Just completely went to crap at the end. I was not happy. I just hope that there is an improvement to come with the rest. Thanks for the scan mate.

NP on jumping in.. lol. BUT avoiding is NOT allowed!! :P
You try any of those discs you got from the GM? Just curious to see how they worked for you.. ;) Did you check the entire spindle?? ;) You might find some good uns in there.. :) Sorry can't remember the last time we "chatted". ;)
Hope all is well with you and yours!! :D

Well... once again I'm extremely irritated. I would have thought stuff like this wouldn't happen anymore, but clearly it does. One of my drives ignored read errors. And I currently believe it to have been the iHES108 BD drive. I will no longer endorse the drive. I've seen pixelated BD rips from it, and now it caused 1 minute 9 seconds of frozen video to occur on one of my backups. The sound keeps going, but its as though I lost hundreds of frames. The iHAP422 had something similar happen. If I get another bad lite-on, I'll consider switching to somebody else. A 100+ dollar drive should not have errors! :(
I don't know for a fact that it was the iHES108. There's a slight chance it was the 7200S. I recently began using it for a reading drive. But since it has read a very ugly looking disc, without fault...I'm really leaning toward the BD drive. And the LH-20A1H simply doesn't make mistakes like that :p
