Fujifilm DVD+R 8x (RITEK R03). Year old burn, didn't expect such a reasonable scan. NEC 3550 for burn, scan with Samsung SH-182D.
( I wonder how well it burns after 4 gig though)Last edited by Dan; 15 May 2007, 06:02 AM.

I am happy with the scans but somewhat concerned with just that chewy. I think it reads certain disks (brands) better than others.
Same with Verbatim, it will now burn at 8x and scan what looks like a trophy burn (under 50 PIF and 95 QS) 9 times out of 10 that I check them.
Doesn't like TYG02 so much though, which seems odd?? Burning or scanning can be off and on. Only wasted a few though, the NEC get only those now.

Okay, so I took the same Ritek R03 and scanned with NEC 3550. Similar results when you consider the 1 ECC with the Samsung, and the 8 ECC using the NEC.
I think it is just a good burn result with okay media, but like you said Chewy, that Samsung is one heck of a reader during scans with most media.Attached Files

Yes they seem to close. It seems odd to me to use 12x on scans but it provides the best results, scanning at 8x will increase the PIF, but the PIE goes way way down, almost too low when used to the NEC.
Perhaps the 12x scans give very nice but not as precise scan?? Makes sense I suppose, 12x would be max for that drive.

Here is a 12x and 8x scan using Samsung, same disk.
Once you are able to view the scans you will see what I was talking about in the previous post. Both scans are nice but the PIF total was why I starting using 12x.

I believe when you scan at 12x you will pick up less spots randomly compare to 8x that is why they are bettersigpicComment
