DVD Burner - NEC - ND-3540A firmware 1.W4

I received the drive when it was first out in the US market: Friday, June 10, 2005. The drive is Made in Malaysia, May 2005 and comes with stock fw 1.01. Flashed with Liggy & Dee firmware 1.W4.

It is my habit to test a drive with all my media before I conclude something. Tests include 11 DVD+Rs, 11 DVD-Rs, 1 DVD+R DL, 1 DVD+RW, 1 CD-R, pressed DVD DL read speed and overburn test.

Lets see how the NEC ND-3540A performs on 25 different media.

Re: zevia takes a look at NEC ND-3540A firmware 1.W4

MCC004 16x DVD+R burned @16x
NEC ND-3540A FW 1.W4. Media sold as Verbatim DVD+R 25pack (Made in Taiwan).

Very good quality, as good as LG 4163/BenQ 1620/Plextor 716A.

Very good. Slightly better than LG 4163/BenQ 1620 --less PIF errors.

AOPC kicks in at the end. Not so good although within limits. BenQ 1620/LG 4163/Plextor 716A produce similar quality.

Taiyo Yuden YUDEN000T02 8x DVD+R burned @16x
NEC ND-3540A FW 1.W4. Media sold as Sony/Fuji/TDK/OEM DVD+R 50pack Made in Japan.

I did several burns on this media and this is the best I can get. Good quality but LG/BenQ/Plextor can do better.

Re: zevia takes a look at NEC ND-3540A firmware 1.W4

Taiyo Yuden YUDEN000T02 8x DVD+R burned @12x
NEC ND-3540A FW 1.W4. Media sold as Sony/Fuji/TDK/OEM DVD+R 50pack Made in Japan.

Very good, although I'm expecting a clean 20 or less PIEs all the way. The burn reached above 13x though.

Good burn, as good as BenQ 1620. Can't compare with LG 4163 fw 1.04 since the firmware does not support this media yet.

OK. BenQ 1620 and Plextor 716A can do much better @16x. LG 4163 only supports @8x.

A coaster due to bad batch I own. LG 4163 also produce coasters. Only BenQ 1620 B7V9 and Plextor 716A can handle this media within error limits.
