Imgburn error while verifying sectors.

[datahoarder]

I've never experienced any problems with burning data, until recently. Everytime I try burning data I get the same error as you can see on the screenshot below. Also i've noticed that I only get this error during the "verifying sectors" process, the burning process goes through without any problems. Any advice?

DVD Burner Model : SAMSUNG DVD-RW SE-S084C

Note : I'm uploading the log info but the verification process hasn't finished yet.

Well, you're not using crap discs, so that's not the problem.

 

You say you've had no problems thus far and it just started up?  Have you always used these same discs or did you just start recently using them?  Even though they're quality discs, your drive may still not like them, like the LG WH16NS60 does.  If you've used these discs fine before and now you're getting problems, how long have you been using this DVD burner?  It may have just given up the ghost.

I don't think it's because of the disks. I 've been burning data for 4+ years (approximately), a few years ago I was using verbatim r disks but the store I was buying them from stopped selling them so I was forced to switch to vebratim rw. But it's been years since that change. So yeah it's probably not the disks. Do you think I should buy a new DVD burner? Or could there be a workaround?

[dbminter]

Well, if you've been using this same burner for 4 years, I would definitely look to try to replace it first.  Since it's USB, if I remember correctly, it's easy to swap out for a new one.  And, to be honest, it's where I'd start first.  Given how relatively cheap USB DVD burners are, too.

 

And you can't necessarily write off the discs.  If you just started this package of discs, Verbatim could have changed the manufacturing process.  They apparently did with DVD+R because my 2nd to last batch of Verbatim DVD+R worked fine in the LG WH16NS60, but the last batch I bought all failed miserably.

Time for a new burner I guess. Thank you so much for your time, I appreciate your help!

[dbminter]

I can't guarantee a new burner will solve the problem, though.  If you get a new one AND it's different than the last one you had and you still get problems, then the next step would be to try swapping out the Verbatim DVD+R for something else.  Maybe Taiyo Yuden DVD+R if they make them.  Or try Verbatim DVD-R.  I eventually had to switch to TY DVD-R because the LG WH16NS60 stopped liking anything from Verbatim that was DVD+R or DVD-R.

Alright, so I'll try different disks and if it doesn't work, i'll probably buy a new burner. Thank you!

[dbminter]

You're probably more likely than other to find the drive is the problem.  I'd start with the drive first and then work on the discs.  Although it is cheaper to try the discs first, probably.  However, if the problem lies with the burner, you've got to replace it anyway, and you're out extra money for the discs.  And the discs you try may not work right with the new burner.  It's the nature of the beast, unfortunately.

The disks I use now and many other brands are also sold seperately and cost almost nothing (less than a dollar i think). So instead of buying lots of disks, i'll buy one disk of each brand, it won't be more than 10 usd. If none of these disks work then i'll buy a new burner.

[dbminter]

Yeah, if you can buy blanks one at a time, that's definitely cheaper.  However, be aware the nature of the beast means one disc can work fine and then the next won't.

I'll keep that in mind, thank you again!
