Dear fellow CDfreaks.com members ,
I’m confused and need your help
Normally I don’t post anywhere else then in the NEC forum buth this problem is not NEC related but general
Like many of us my DVD collection is growing rapidly and when I try to read old written DVD’s I get problems from time to time
I have been told that 1 of the best DVD Drives for reading old/scratched/cheap media is the Plextor PX-712A (wich I own) but it’s weird cuz its just this drive that gives the most unrepairable read error’s
I also own a Plextor PX-116 DVD-ROM and a NEC 3520 at the moment
My findings are that the PX-116 is the best reader of the 3 followed by the 3520 NEC and then the PX-712
Now the question ,I have numerous DVD’s that are unreadable in the 3 Drives but play perfectly in my Standalone Devices , most of them are scratch free even
Wich DVD-ROM of Writer (it doesn’t matter what) has THE BEST error correctional ability ???
I find it to be the PX-116 in my own experience and definitely NOT the PX-712 as been told
I’d like to purshase me an “Ultimate Reader” in order to recover parts of my DVD-collection
