The Samsung SH-W162C is a respectable reader, it is by no means the fastest reader on the block, but during our read tests it proved reliable.

reliability is more important than speed

[jlohojo7]

so are you sayin a 20 min rip is acceptable and i should just leave it be ??

its just hard to use this drive when my nec can do it in 8 or 9 min

[jlohojo7]

it says the dvd average start read speed was 6.78 mine starts at 2.4

do a trt of one of your best burns and post

[jlohojo7]

do you just want me to do that very first test is that all and post the graph or whats goin on ??


I havent burned anything with this new drive

headed to bed buddy ill try and do some more tomorrow during work if i can if not it will be after 5

For this test you need the new drive at the end of the cable, jumpered master. Make sure it's a good burn/clean disk you are reading. We'll reflash firmware from safe mode if we get a slow read. Then retest. Then we will test the nec in the same position. I would rather run the test with a new cable, even a 40 conductor one.
