Question: LG GH20LP20 Dvd-r reading problems

LG Writer Discuss, LG GH20LP20 Dvd-r reading problems at CD and DVD Writers forum; Brought this LG GH20LP20 dvd burner from BB about 4-6 months ago. I installed it in a Dell 9150 because the Lite-On LH-20A1p was starting to get flaky burns after burning about 4000 dvd-r's on it. Also the tray has been very hard to open lately. Any way I installed

Brought this LG GH20LP20 dvd burner from BB about 4-6 months ago.
I installed it in a Dell 9150 because the Lite-On LH-20A1p was starting to get flaky burns after burning about 4000 dvd-r's on it. Also the tray has been very hard to open lately. Any way I installed as the master and the Lite-On as the slave. The LG GH20LP20 burns dvd-r's real good. No problems there. But when it comes time to rip/read a dvd-r the rip/read speed sucks. The fatest speed it ends up at is 6x and takes over 12 minutes to rip/read a dvd-r that I made on my Panny dvd recorder or one I encoded on my computer. Hell my flaky Lite-On dvd burner can rip/read up to 15x and rips/reads the same dvd-r in less than 5 minutes. Where is the problem?

Now I am thinking about getting a Samsung Sata dvd burner.

DMA on slower hardware or (the drive's or media) copy protection.

Try http://ala42.cdfreaks.com/ and/or a ripper which can handle CP.
