  1. Thanks - I was surprised with the CMC. I think I won't rely on them or Ritek (if they work) for long-term storage and just buy a couple of Verbatim as and when I need them.
  2. Sorry for not updating sooner - it's been a bit hectic here and I'd forgotten! And the Verbatim BD-R discs were the non-AZO type from Amazon. They burn and verify fine. I had some DVD+R DLs that I didn't realise were Ritek. They predictably did not work. Verbatim DVD+R DLs burn and verify fine. I had a few BD-R DLs kicking around so tried one to test the drive - it burnt and verified fine. It was a CMC disc. However, I've just bought a couple more to replenish my stock - they are US$6.60 per disc here in the UK, so I don't buy many at a time! They have turned out toe be Ritek. I haven't tried them yet as I don't want to waste a disc by just using it as a test burn. Given the issues with the BDR-209 and Ritek DVD media, do you think the BD-R DL ones will give an issue?
  3. Thanks again for the reply! Some good progress made - I had to go to town today, so picked up a spindle of Verbatim AZO BD-Rs from WH Smith - only £10.04, which I was very surprised, for 10 discs. Did another burn of the ISO and verify and all went successfully - so it was down to suspect media! The discs that have been giving trouble are now in the bin where they belong! I had cancelled the other discs after getting the ones today but have now reordered them as they are the non AZO type, so am interested to see how they perform.
  4. I probably didn't mention clearly either that the problem with PHILIP -R04-00 discs occurs on both 1.50 and 1.52 firmware versions
  5. Thanks for your detailed reply - I think before trying any reverting to firmware revisions, I'll wait for the Verbatim discs to show up. Might see if WH Smith have a single disc to try in town today - they'll be pricey enough for any more! I'm suspecting it,'s the media as I left it writing to a BR-RE overnight and that write and verified fine. I'll update when I have more progress!
  6. Hi, I recently picked up a Pioneer BDR-209 drive and have connected it up using a S-ATA To USB adaptor along with an external power supply. Burning CD-Rs and DVD-Rs is not an issue. However, whenever I try to write to a BD-R disc - even setting the drive to 2X, the write process completes successfully but then fails during the verification process. The ISO image that I created and then burnt contained a bunch of ISO images and I cannot even copy them back to my PC directly off the disc. The discs were some I bought some time back - ImgBurn shows them as a Disc ID of PHILIP-R04-000. Could these be the culprit? I tried flashing the drive to the latest firmware - it shipped with v1.50 and I flashed it to v1.52 but the issue still remains. I have attached a log file showing multiple attempts. I have also ordered 10 Verbatim BD-Rs off Amazon to see if they are any better - they should be here on Tuesday. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Neil ImgBurn.log
  7. Sorry for the slow update. The Verbatim Datalife Plus AZO discs finally arrived today. I've just burnt a VMware ESXI ISO as a test and had success. I'll order in some more of those CDs now they work - I initially only ordered 10. I've just ordered a pack of 10 Verbatim AZO DVD+Rs to test as well as I had similar issues with burning DVDs a while back. I'll report back my findings!
  8. Yep, I've checked that, but it seems to show the same log. I've attached it in case it is different. ImgBurn.log
  9. That's great. Fingers crossed they work and if they do, I'll order some more. The current dics are Life Savers which would explain them being junk. Unfortunately I've got none of the Maxell dics left nor sny logs ftom whwn I used them
  10. Thanks - I've ordered a spindle of 10 Verbatim Data Life Plus AZO CD-Rs, so hopefully they will solve the issue. I'll report back my findings once they show up wnd I test them out. They are due to arrive in around a week
  11. Thanks - but to be fair, these discs were branded Verbatim, so I don't knowingly buy rubbish discs. I also had the same issue witb Maxell diacs. Do you know of any brand that ships reliable discs?
  12. I've had issues with a LiteOn USB DVD drive connected to my laptop refusing to burn CDs. I've tried the drive both connected directly and via a powered USB hub being the only device connected on the hub. The burning process seems to fail at writing the Lead In stage and I've probably produced over 15 coasters attempting to burn discs. I've tried AnyBurn, CDBurnerXP and ImgBurn. This is with Windows 10 Pro build 1809. I've even tried a clean install of Windows 10 but to no avail. I've attached an ImgBurn log file. Any advaice would be much appreciate as to any advice on how to solve this one! ImgBurn.log
