l0ki000 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Hello All I'm observing strange behaviour of my old NEC 3540A drive. He starts instantly corrupting disks at the end while writing them. The write process goes smooth, except few mechanical clicks at the end of disk, but verification fails nearly 220???? sector. I've tried different disks, ie MCC 03RG20, CD-R MID: 97m15s17f (Ritek Co.), MBIPG101-W04-00 -- all of them became corrupted nearly same place. I was thinking about junk disks, but tried to write MCC 03RG20 on my notebook Lite-On . Everything was ok. Here is log for last failed session: I 02:07:00 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!

BTW, I have cleaned the lens. Thanks in advance.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 As you've already tried cleaning it and have tried a couple of different MIDs, yes, I'd go for a new drive.
