dbminter Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Why is it when an image is being written to a disc, activity on the media where the image being burned is stored can cause Waiting for buffers to recover, but when the Verify is being performed, such activity has never, as far as I can tell, caused a buffer problem? I don't understand why it works one way but not the other. Both functions are dependent on reading the image file from the source media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Because burning has to happen at the speed the drive burns at or burnproof kicks in. Verifying happens at whatever speed the drives can manage between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Does this not effect writing to USB drives? I've noticed that if I'm reading from an SATA HDD burning to an SATA burner and there's more HDD activity, then the buffers issue comes into play. However, I don't think I've ever encountered the same issue when writing to USB burners with the read from an SATA HDD. Which, if I think about it makes more sense as the target is not on the same channel as the source. The source is SATA while the target is USB.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 It's the same process no matter where you're reading from or writing to. Sata channels are independent of each other and should all be able to run at max speed at the same time. So basically, it shouldn't matter if you're doing sata -> sata.
