Brand new Pioneer BDR-205...Is this normal?

Hi,

 

Ok, first of all, that's not really a problem related to ImgBurn but I need to talk about an weird issue I have with my blu-ray burner. Here's my config :

 

Windows XP SP3

ImgBurn 2.5.0.0

Pioneer BDR-205 Blu-Ray Burner in a Vantec NST-530SU

Vantec UGT-ST300 (PCI Add-on for eSata Vantec enclosure)

 

Ok, here's the issue. I've burned a full blu-ray of MP3 (~23GB) scene release. By scene, I mean with the nfo, sfv... Anyway, the BD has burned fine, the verification process of ImgBurn went well (no error whatsoever!) but, when I put the CD back in the drive and try to verify the .sfv with RekSFV (very good sfv checker, btw), I get random errors. But, that's not all. I've tried to copy the BD on my HDD and again, no error at all during the copy. Try to verify the sfv for integrity (on the HDD!), to my suprise, no more error. All mp3 have passed the verification. So my question, Could it be my drive? I really don't understand why the integrity check fails directly on the BD but when I copy this BD content on the HDD, all errors have disappeared. Can someone try to light me up on this one? The BDR-205 is brand new, this is my 6th burned BD, and 3 out of 6 have done the exact same thing. PRETTY weird, if you want my opinion. And in case you're wondering, I used ISO9660+UDF revison 1.02 (yeah, as long as some of my machines will have XP on it, I will have to go with rev 1.02). And I use only Verbatim BD-R (Disc ID: VERBAT-IMc-00 at 2X or 4X, it depends of my mood!)

 

I'm impatiently waiting for an answer. And just in case Lightning UK! read this post, ImgBurn is BY FAR the best burning application I've used. No clogged GUI, a lot of options and I don't need a Starcraft II config to run it smoothly. Thank you very much for such a great product.

Draven,

 

If you keep doing the SFV check on the disc, do the errors move? What if you try QuickPAR on the same SFV?

 

Random data corruption is very hard to track down. It could be the drive, the interface, the cable, the drivers, the RAM... the list goes on.

 

 

toshik, weren't you sending your drive off for repair / replacement? Anyway, your ongoing problems belong in your thread, not in here.
