I dont know whether its the optiarc or a component, but its got me rather nervous at this point. I cant wait to get those verbs here now.
The +R verbs that I use (MCC 004) Are 99% freakishly good scans. If I can spit out a half dozen good scans of those, i'll relax a little. I'd really like to try the +R TY's. do some comparison scanning.

I feel for yah man, I really do. Typically UPS arrives at my place a few minutes before I have to leave. Most the time, I get to see the box, And thats it! What a tease huh? Especially since I work for um.
Heres a better burn. Im wondering if im just getting a few bad discs. I took a nine led light (HELPS) to the recording dye, and it shows a kinda haze, as well as some being spotty. Oh well. There almost done in this package.

Well, Seeing your drop down there, You must have some sata ports to spare, LOL. JEALOUS MUCH -----> :0 Especially if you have a working sata add-in card. Im getting irritated with this computer of mine. Its slowly but surely becoming VERY outdated. Could you work with 2 sata ports? Yah thats right, a big fat 2
I really gotta concentrate on my future build. AM3 baby!!!
NICE SIG by the way

well the 7220S is most definitely a lite-on. if not there is way to many similarities between them.
take a look at these two shots of each drive with the same disc in it. look at the drop down speed selection. both the same the 7220S doesnt have the same values as the 7200A/S
even with all the things the same the 7220S cant do jitter test look at this error. but i think this might have something to do with the registry. i had this same type thing for my samsung and changed it to be able to scan.. dont remember how to check and see though.
and here is the first burn and scan off the 7220S on a 8x-r TY. burnt at 8x scanned at 4x on the 7220S yes 4x not the 5x as the 7200A/S.
over all not a bad scan at all first burn on orignal FW. check out the create disc shot though. when i did this burn a minute into the burn AVG kicked in and doing its scans. even with all that going on it still gave me a good first burn.
and here is the same disc scanned on the DH-20A4P
and now to do a burn with the 20A4P. sorry for all the screen shots. kinda got carried away lastnight...lol
Om7
i now have 2 free sata ports. i have 2 sata HDD and 2 sata ODD and 2 ide ODD. i dont have my othe card controler hooked up it gives to many errors. i need a better one.

ok here is the first burn on the 20A4P. guess if ya want it done right do it with a litey.....lol damn good for a first burn.
this is a 7.35gb movie. used clonedvd/anydvd2 combo. on the fly. 61% compression. not bad huh???? no need for a FW update i think... i did forget to set the bitsetting for this drive so it is at dvd+r.. gonna do another burn with correct bitsetting.
well i change the bitsetting and enabled smartburn. this burn doesnt look as good. but if ya take out the spike right in the middle it is a great scan.

RedRob not a bad burn at all. The differences between the 2 are just the spike it seems, I'm assuming NOTHING else was going on when that spike happened. ;) You might try a different f/w and see if anything is changed with that. I would try the one with everything and fbl NOT fb, just different if you know what I mean. ;) I'm assuming you used that one at least you indicated you would at CDF. :P
good luck buddy....

Indeed, I wouldnt mind 6 of um. Experiment with making a duplicator for under retail, and I could make some money on um.
I still see a few sites carrying the 7200(A). Fairly cheap too. Just need to find all the components to do so.
Heres a "little burn" LOL :) (1st Optiarc 7200A), Data dvd burned with IMGBURN @8X. The more I use the program, the more I like it. Something to note, And im leaving my config alone for A LONG time now... is that 4/5 of my optical drives are ran via USB->Ide. Running flawlessly now. Gonna check the iHAP next. It didnt like it usb last time. But I gave it my newest conversion cable soo...
When I installed My new ram, I removed my IDE add-in card, and just hooked most of my opti's up via usb. Im pretty ^*&%&%$^#*ED Until I get either a new board or a completely new build. Probably a new build. This comps going on almost 2 yrs. Its time, LOL :D

Hmmm... wish I could help. Are yours the style that CLIP in? I would look into those.
Heres a little scan of a mini dvd. A work colleague asked me to consolidate 5 mini dvds of a wedding onto a standard or DL dvd. Im thinking standard'l work out. We'll see. Not a bad burn for the sony cam!!! Memorex branded ritek G04's. Mine are the REAL deal. I have them also. I think my LH-20A1H will do about the same burn quality. Though the cam is probably burning at 1X, soo... its not hard to get a score like this.

Red Rob,
try this place. Scroll down to the yellow or red ones. I haven't tried them but they look interesting. Might have to get a few myself.
I didn't like what I saw at Monoprice, my first choice.

Quit using the crap cables they include with the drives or mobos. :P
you might look at these.. I've had some good luck with them and the company mails USPS to save cash too. :)

Is it plugged into the same SATA as the 7200S with the broken SATA plug$ That drive was working. I don't think it's SATA cables. How many of you have paid upwards of $150 for HDMI Monster cable instead of the $7 firefold HDMI that works just as good. It's only wire. JM2C

garmoon,
I agree, I don't think it's the Sata cables either! With all the builds I do I've yet to have any problems with the cables that come with the MB. I use them on my own, and I've never had to replace one. The only thing I won't do is tie them up folded or together! I've seen too many problems occur caused by customers doing just that!

Indeed russ. Ive heard of problems with ide cable being folded. Infact, it was one of the first things I learned to NEVER do when it comes to computers. I have a red, and a black sata cable. Its a shame they're so rigid. But it really doesnt bother me that much. I have to be really carefull. One of the reviews on newegg, suggests that the sata ports on my mobo could come off with the cable. And yes, they do seem week. Considering looking into some LIT cables. Anybody think thats a bad idea? The led/light current that runs through wouldnt interfere with the transfer signal, would it. eewwww, thats a scary thought.

Ehh... I wouldnt say that about Philips brand. Everything they sell is #$&*#$ But for the most part, I'll agree with that. I have however bought a monstercable audio cable that increased/cleaned the sound of my audio on both my computer and my cars sound system. Though the increase is marginal. But I wouldnt spend THAT much on HDMI cable!!! Unless I were bill gates or the president, lol

no its not the same cable that had the broken peace from the other drive. it is a older cable i think i might have had a problem with before. but it is plugged into the same SATA slot on the mobo that the other drive was plugged into.
as for the cables that came with the mob 2 of them are crap. one had a broken clip on it(the one that clips to the drive itself the opposite end of the "L" shape and the other one has a crack in the plastic part that plugs into the drive or mobo which ever you choose.
im not gonna mess with it tonight but tomorrow i will try my last NEW sata cable and a different slot on the mobo.

I guess when one can't find a logical answer they start making them up. I mean if you tried a second SATA cable and had the same problem, then what are the chances that you got two bad cables back to back? And even a third?? Not good. Look elsewhere. Maybe you just got a bad drive? See I just made that one up. Do you have another SATA drive to try. What happened to the bummed 7200S? I'd have left it alone till it just died. I know what you're going thru. I had trouble with my new SATA equipped Dell XPS in May. No one could figure out why it wouldn't close a disc in certain -almost all- programs. Dell, Slysoft and AD helpers. After using get arounds ( and GM taunting me to buy ODD-and I got the best :) everything just started to work correctly when it wasn't earlier. Never figured out the conflict cause everything is the same when I had trouble. Hang in there Rob.
