hobbit112,
Quote: I've been hearing some nice things about the Sony Optiarc 7200 and have been thinking about one for myself.
I've been using Optiarc drives since the NECs were NECs and then switched to Optiarc. The only issue I ever had was with the AW series, and that was because they looked very cheap! I've sold a ton of them and only had one go bad, and that was mine after the PSU went south! LOL!! They are all I use for my customer builds unless the customer wants something specific. I like the price, quality and performance I get with them!
Best Regards,
Russ

Just be warned, the F16s are terrible! My last 100 Ridatas had about 20 of them mixed in with the good ones and they stink! 6 coasters out of the 20. The R03-004s I had before were much better. Ridata, which is very close to where I live, replaced them for me. That's why I switched to the Verbs! I don't get coasters, ever! The only ones I've ever gotten were when I burned when it advised me not to, although I did get that same error message when I made a back up of "The Golden Compass", and that turned out OK. I had to also change the name of the directory for the rip as it wouldn't create the folder because the title has syntax errors so it can't create the folder as the title name. Just create your own named folder (any name) and manually tell the program where to store the rip and it works fine!

Well I got screwed!! Didn't get an email, didn't get a coupon, didn't get anything but open air internet! NOW I'll get emails spamming my account, mail to my address, and stuff I don't want. :P
J/K ... Guess their email is running slow or something went awry!!
Just did a scan with KProbe and all seems well. I want to do a Jitter test but don't remember where it is with KProbe if there is one. Sorry a little slow today. ;)
OH crap.. forgot about this post.... lol. Been writing it for about 2 hours now.. lol.

blivetNC,

I never had a problem with the Riteks until the F-16s! The 002s and 003s were excellent through all their revisions. They worked very well and the only coasters I ever made (3) were my own fault, not the media! That's why I made the switch to the Verbs when I started getting failures with the F-16s! No problems with the Verbs at all!
BTW! I just though of this. Is your 160 powered by the USB line? That could be the whole problem. Not enough power for the length of the usb cable! If I use a usb optical drive I have a powered usb hub I installed. Helps solve that kind of problem! Can't hurt to ask! LOL!!
Best Regards,
Russ

cincyrob,
Quote: Here we go with nero...man if these are crappy disc, by the scans they are pretty awsome. below 7000PIE's in nero thats real nice. gonna pop it in and check it out some see how it plays.
All the ones I got were from the first production batch according to the numbers. That's why they replaced them! If they've solved whatever problem that was plaguing them, that's good! 6 out of the 20 I had were bad, and I'm not exactly new at this! LOL!! It wasn't a hardware issue as I've had no problems at all with the Verbs!
Make that 8 out of 22! I just found 2 F-16s at the very bottom of the stack! Both failed to burn right in different machines! No scratches or anything obvious that I could see.
