Plextor PX-740A & Nero
I've created a few backups using my Plextor drive and Nero 6.6.0.16. When
I write to a Memorex or Ritek DVD+R/DL disc, I get a "successful burn" followed by multiple errors on the verify. Using the same media, but writing ISO's with DvdDecrypter (same speed, 2.4x), I don't get any verify errors. For now I'll just use Nero to create an ISO and then burn with DvdDecrypter. I just recently upgraded the firmware from 1.00 to 1.01, so maybe that will help. I also noticed this drive sometimes has read errors on commercially available DVD media. -- Tim.

Re: Plextor PX-740A & Nero
I have read that the average live expectancy of a DVD writer is two to
three years. My first $350 Sony one lasted a bit over a year. I am still on my second Pioneer 16X, about two years now. On the other hand, are your DMA settings for the drive proper? View the newbie tips at http://www.mrbass.org/dvdnewbie/ Cheers... Mark Burns |

I have a Pioneer that's going on almost 2 years and an external Plextor going on a year. Both work great. I did lose a Sony drive during a power outtage (it was burning at the time of power loss). My only problem is my new DL drive. Since Decrypter works great, I'm assuming it has something to do with Nero. -- Tim.
