I’ve just got a new NEC 3540A burner and I noticed that when burning (Nero) at full speed, both the drive buffer and nero’s buffer jump around and get very close to 0% alot of the time. I’ve not had a failed burn yet, but should I lower the speed to be on the safe side or will buffer underrun protection take care of it?
I’d consider my system to be medium spec (Athlon XP 2500, 1Gb RAM, 160Gb IDE hard disc), but a couple of years ago I remember people having issues just to get their high-end system to even burn at 4x speed.
