thesituasian Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 I've always used TDK manufactured by Taiyo Yuden but ran out and went to buy a new spindle. Little did I know that TDK was made by Imation, which has a history of crappy discs. The very top disc of the Imation spindle worked fine, even on MAX speed. The next several CD's I tried to burn with all finished the writing process 100% but when the verification process comes (that part after closing the disc tray when it ejects), I get an I/O error saying 'Unrecovered Read Error'. This is the log of one of my tries: I 20:28:52 ImgBurn Version 2.5.6.0 started!

Your drive can only burn at those speeds on that media, regardles of what you want. As you said you already tried 2x, 4x, 10x, 14x that means actualy the drive used 8x and probably 16x as the program sets the closest speed to what you select when it not match. So, try one at 24x and if it not produce a good burn you have to try other media or get back to what you know it works.
