I've been burning backups to 25GB BD-R's using ImgBurn for a number of years. I've just tried to recover files from some of the discs (burned about 5 years ago), and there are a batch of about 10 discs which can't be read at all - they are all TDK blue label discs. When I insert any of the discs into the drive I get "The Device is not ready".
I guess that this was a bad batch of discs, but was wondering whether there were any utilities (for Windows 10) which might be able to recover any of the data from these discs?
-
TBH I can't remember if they're DVD-R or DVD+R, just that they are DL. I guess ImgBurn must be reporting them correctly if it says that they're DVD+R?
I use BD-RE's most of the time now, so it's not really worth investing in another batch of dual-layer DVD's - particularly as I have a shedload of blank single-layer DVD-R, DVD+R and DVD-RW discs in my cupboard. It's a shame that it's the DL discs that are failing, as I only had a few of them left (even fewer now that the last 3 are coasters).
-
Ah OK I didn't realise that.
So I've just successfully burned a 4.7GB DVD-RW, which suggests that the CD/DVD laser is OK?
I've just tried reading some of the DVD-R's from this batch that were burned about 7-8 years ago and they're still fine. It's odd that the rest of the batch suddenly can't be written to.
-
Yes I did wonder about the shelf life of the discs. In the past a spindle of 50 of these discs would last me a few years, but these days I'm mainly burning to BD-RE discs so the DVD-R's have been lying around for longer than usual. They've been kept in a warm dry place so I was hoping they'd still be OK.
I've just managed to burn a 25GB BD-RE using the same drive, so the hardware seems to be OK.

I've been using these discs for many years, with ImgBurn and the same BD-RE burner. In fact this batch/spindle of discs has lasted me about 5 years, and bar the odd glitch in the past has worked well.

I am using ImgBurn 2.5.8.0 to burn files and folders to a dual-layer DVD-R disc, from a batch of blank discs that I have used before successfully. I'm getting these errors after about 15 minutes:
I/O Error! Device: [0:0:0] HL-DT-ST BD-RE BH10LS30 1.02 (E:) (SATA) ScsiStatus: 0x02 Interpretation: Check Condition CDB: 2A 00 00 19 6F E0 00 00 20 00 Interpretation: Write (10) - Sectors: 1667040 - 1667071 Sense Area: 70 00 04 00 00 00 00 0A 35 01 04 3E 09 01 00 00 00 00 SK Interpretation: Hardware Error ASC/ASCQ Interpretation: Tracking Servo FailureThe size of the project was reported as follows immediately prior to burning:

I've tried this 4 times now, with discs from the same batch, and got errors every time. The latest log is below. For some reason it reports that Drive I: (which is neither the source or destination device - it's my Google Drive mapping) does not support single files > 4GB, but as it's a warning I guess it's not relevant to the problem. It also reports the O/S as Windows 8 Professional, even though I'm running Windows 10 Pro (???).
Any idea what the problem might be?

To summarise...I was trying to write 4 files (large .exe files) to a 7GB DVD-R, from a half empty tub that I hadn't used for a few years. The first couple of burns failed, at which point I suspected that maybe the media had degraded while sat on the shelf (I had noticed some moisture on the discs which I needed to wipe off - I suspect this dated back to a leak in my study over a year ago). When the third burn failed I decided that I should try an alternative media, in case there was in fact a problem with the drive or software. So I tried burning the same files to a 4GB DVD-RW (forgetting that it had half the capacity of the DVD-R's). When I got the warning message about the capacity I tried again, but only burning two of the four files, so that they would fit on the disc. I got the same error that I had with the DVD-R's. At that point I posted my message here.
-
Sorry I think I must have uploaded the wrong section of the log. On one of my attempts to burn to the DVR I burned only a couple of the files, so that it would all fit onto the disc, but got that same error.
-
OK so I followed dbminter's instructions to update the drive firmware, then rebooted. After the reboot everything was fine -thanks!
I've been using the same DV-R/W media for 5+ years without any problems (am actually using discs from the same pack that I bought 5 years ago), so it didn't seem like a media compatibility issue.

I am using ImgBurn 2.5.8.0 on Windows 10, attempting to burn 4 .exe files in a folder to a 7GB DVD-R. A number of attempts have now failed with the error below. The files vary in size from 1.5GB to 1.9GB.
Any idea why I am getting this error?

Please ignore this - the disc burn actually seems to have completed!

I was burning a 25GB BD-R using Imgburn 2.5.80 (on Windows 10 Pro). I accidentally happened upon a keystroke which seems to have paused the disc burning process. The progress window has gone, the BD-RW drive is no longer being accessed, and the green bar at the bottom of the Disk Layout Editor has a white highlight scrolling across it repeatedly. To the right of the green bar it says 99% (I suspect that is the % full figure for the disc, rather than the progress of the burn?).
Can anyone advise on how I can resume and complete the burning process?
Unable to read batch of BD-R's - any recovery utilities that might work?

Thanks for your reply - I feared that this might be the case
