I just want to double check and make sure that i can use my burner properly and not make anymore coasters :a i used nero to test.

here are the results

SPEED

AVERAGE= 29.97x
START= 21.91x
END= 29.93x

TYPE= p-cav
DAE QUALITY= 10
ACCURATE STREAM= yes

SEEK TIMES

RANDOM= 113ms
1/3= 117ms
FULL= 317ms

CPU USAGE

1X=9%
2X=6%
4X=18%
8X=28%
BURST RATE=15MB/s

Assuming your drive is internal…that burst rate is a little low. Is your DMA enabled?

Make sure it’s enabled, then try another burn.

:slight_smile:

#3

Yes it’s an internal drive and the dma IS enabled it actually says ultra dma enabled.

#4

Try a test burn with the new firmware. :slight_smile:

#5

What is your burner?

From the tests I’d assume a CD burner so maybe the burst rate is OK.

Hi :slight_smile:
With TRT speeds of AVERAGE= 29.97x /START= 21.91x /END=29.93x :iagree:
If it is a DVDRW then I want one. :bigsmile:
Obviously it isn’t. :disagree:
So burst rate is about right.DMA is enabled. :doh:
(Do I get the kippers now or later?) :stuck_out_tongue:

Please attach the Nero CD-DVD Speed image here (save as PNG). I would assume there is a problem at the end of the disc (CD) since the Transfer Rate test started at 21.91x with average almost 30x (thus it should be a straight 40x/48x max) but at the end it slowed down to 29x.

[I can’t seem to copy and paste my results

Attaching Nero CDSpeed/Kprobe image to your post: http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=119042

Hi :slight_smile:
As you probably know by looking around forum, should look like this. Try checking connections. Using device manager uninstall drive, then reboot so as tp let Windows find/reinstall drive.

Derek, I’m glad you followed my advice but 10 minutes between last post and bump is a little optimistic ;).

Give everyone a chance - I’m having my tea at the moment, for example… others maybe watching the Arsenal vs Barca :cool:.

Edit: OK, maybe someone isn’t :stuck_out_tongue: :D.

#15

@derek: please post Nero InfoTools log within

 tags here. You should get burst rate over 21MB/s even for CDRW burner if it's in UDMA2.
