I bought this SATA drive not two months ago and it's showing unusual performance, namely that even with high quality Verbatim 8x DVD+R media and Sony 8x DVD-R discs I'm getting disappointing PI/PIF charts, even after a recent firmware upgrade. All of the DMA settings are where they should be. What could be the problem?

You might want to read through this thread since aabbccdd and I believe greensman and cincy have this burner and the updates and one person not remembering who had to send one back. Chris http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/4/558703

Having read through the entire thread from page 4, I don't quite understand what I'm supposed to think of it. Did I happen to buy tainted media or something?

I got the new firmware for my drive. My burns turned out slightly better.

@TheExcel
I have the LiteOn LH-20A1P and had problems until I updated the firmware. These aren't your old LiteOn's of the past; LiteOn bought Benq - It is a completely new drive with a little of Benq mixed in.
When I Put the new fw KLON on my LiteOn it was a beast with my Verbatim -/+ R DVD media. I would double check your fw - might be a newer version.
Burn On,
Russell
