lol that's a very open ended question chewy!
It's kinda hard to tell what you were asking for exactly!
If you're on about the SCSI ID address (the [x:x:x] one), yeah, just add some more controllers into your machine!
As for the speed thing, no, that doesn't indicate anything to do with drivers.
You've got a max of 12 and average of 4. To me it looks like it stepped up and stepped down again. Without seeing the write speed graph, it's hard to say - but that's what the graph is there for. That time is about right for a 4x burn though.
I had the same problem with burn times when i had nvida ide drivers installed, of course it was complicated
by sil 3112 serial drivers that were also bad(damn asus)
Now shamus is using a fairly recent well known burner with a cruddy but well known mid, If ImgBurn
tells the pioneer to write at 12x why would the average write speed be 4x?
Graph or no graph, simple math.

I 19:05:57 Operation Successfully Completed! - Duration: 00:13:52
I 19:05:57 Average Write Rate: 5,492 KB/s (4.0x) - Maximum Write Rate: 15,443 KB/s (11.2x)
and for a 12x burn that's way too long indicating problematic ide drivers?

Hint: There's also SATA drives in the machine this log was taken from.
I only have 4 boxes with sata raid chips and my burners are on channels 0 and 1
2 of the boxes have dual sata and dual pata, but they are turned off in bios

how do you ever end up with something like this?

lol, how can you call my logs strange?!
They're the most straight forward things in the world compared to all the shite Nero outputs!
Pardon LUK, strange to me, as in new, (0,1,0) for example!
90% of the shite log I skip, only 50% of yours, course those parts I don't understand.
Ignorance can be bliss.

Ah thank you Chewy.....
I love to talk power user stuff, now dual raid stripes would be nice and network
3 or 4 of them on gigabit!
Of course then I would want dual dual core opterons!
now this is fun! with 145$ cpu and 60$ worth of memory

Actually I think the term is "wtf" and "you lost me"
The best example of standalone masters are serial hard drives, by design
they have no master/slave designation, I took a transcoded vid ts folder
on one hard drive and converted to an iso on another hard drive,
shrink settled in at 38MB/s, 4,399MB in 2 min 2 sec.
I could try a test of dual 16x burns with drives sharing the same cable but
I am pretty sure the burn would take 10-12 minutes not 7 or 8!
-
its enabled
i dont know about the nec still being king, but the benq is sure making an excellent disc out of TYG02's , test to follow shortly
and that would be an unrestricted burn at 8x?
NEC's would overspeed at 24x if they found a way!
Course that's another theory about TYG's, same disks, different mid's!
600 disks later(200+200+200)
-
nahhh , there were teething troubles in those logs , take a look again
things look a lot more normal now.
good! direct evidence of that ghost i have been chasing, benq's have a lot of learning curves built into their
hardware/firmware, my theory includes scanning/verifying learning curves, but then wookies are crazy!
and next firmware flash it starts all over!
status of WOPC?
and like dee says the nec 3500 is still king of the dvd-r world!
good work corny!
-
LOL, i try to keep up
and i am trying to
learn to read these strangs logs
-
The definitive term is a luxurious "STANDALONE MASTERS", of course if
2 drives never talk to each other then they can share controllers and cables.
-
nahhh , there were teething troubles in those logs , take a look again
things look a lot more normal now.
lot's of virtual drives?yes , i have all 4 virtual daemon drives in use
Shucks i wanted to know how you got 7 drives working!
kinda disappointed I didn't catch you with old firmware!

but not the plex

Had to give my wife one of her own to keep her happy. Then of course had to give one to my son. So now I'm back to one - which of course gets the best upgrades with bits then passed down the line.
That's what got me into building, I had 3 teenagers, luckily they have grown up.
-
that's why you can never have too many burners or computers
-
I almost thought that burner was going back then....... LoL!
It is, but I could always try a few things while waitng on the RMA form.
Unless you've established another burner works fine in that computer and this burner
doesn't work in another computer, you've not found the problem.
No amount of educated guesswork replaces that test.
-
device manager, open up the mother ide, go to the secondary if that's what the burner is hooked to and right click, properties/driver/roll back
-
Nah, nothing to write home about.
Now this is going back to the store.
Sometimes you just have to decide how many coasters you are willing to burn...and well, I have certainly crossed that line now!
But thanks again all, for your help and patience.
try rolling back the ide driver to the msdefault one for the channel the burner is on,
had that mobo for almost a year right after it came out
-
Be very careful with the new Sym. security suite, I don't like it's
handling of the admin privileges at all, and skeptical of nero 7's
influence.
-
Just want to add the fact that maybe - as degas said in his post - I will decide to go with a clean Windows installation, and if it does not work then, I assume it has to be either a hardware or a firmware problem. See you soon
what's the driver for the secondary ide?

Chewy, would this be the LG model you mentioned: http://www.computergoodies.ca/item1218.htmThe price is right and availability is good. I take it that its a great burner. Sorry for all the questions man, but you guys give me so much more information to make a choice by..................
. I thought they were all gone, it doesn't scan, but is the best reader I have ever used, will handle almost
any badly burned or damaged disks. Coupled with a benq, you have the best of both worlds, and as an extra it's the fastest burner I have seen. Consistent 95-99 burns @ 8x on MIJ media.
Blooie and anonie sure like theirs.

oh ok.........
really have to wake up before I post in the mornings......... Chewy: Pioneer 108
Pioneer A-08
Benq 1655 ( new later today)
Will probabley look at Pioneer 110D to replace A-08 which is quite old now. Whats your opinoin on these Chewy?
I guess you were including your hard drive, I thought you had another burner besides the Pioneer 108.
The pioneer 110D seems to be the only drive that has much luck with ritek dl disks, but who wants to use
them? If you could ever find an old stock LG 4163B, that's my most valued burner! I love my nec 3550 and hope I don't wear it out before the firmware matures. When I can get a benq 1550, I will retire my
LG from burning and save as a reader.

dual burning, mismatched burners, standalone masters, 3540/3550
****....18 ritek ridata R04 @ 8x time 10:33
single burn on 3550 same as above, time 9:51

it's not the cpu locking up, it's your infineon memory.
dividers!
You should have heard what my german mentor over in digital digest
said when he saw my inital overclock before I backed down the fsb.
I was perfectly stable at
CPU FSB 290.06 MHz (original: 200 MHz, overclock: 45%)
Memory Bus 186.46 MHz
but the mem bus with that memory was too low(I tried 3 sets)
idle in high 20's
