Yeah, it is probably cheaper to pick up a replacement drive than another spindle. I will go the Pioneer route. Thanks for the help LIGHTNING.

I will switch it to 4x to be sure, and post a log of the burn+verify and let you know. Thanks LIGHTNING. No Success. Another burn, this time at 4X netted the original results: I 06:58:18 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

Well, I burned a disk at AUTO, and it burned at 4x. The disc completed, but was essentially unreadable. I will try another disc. Maybe I have a bad batch of discs?

While I can't confirm because I don't see either listed, I do see Chinese under the lid coaster, so maybe Singapore?

Burning image using Samsung 203N with latest firmware and Verbatim 2.4x DL media. I am beginning to think it is the drive, but wanted to at least check with the experts first. Almost halfway through a burn, I get the following error: I 00:20:10 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!
