The Good The Bad and The Silly

Nothing important here. Just thought this was amusing.

 

I needed to burn four discs from an Admin PC (Dell). It only had a ROM drive and I didn't feel like transfering files to another machine so here's where I ended up.

 

I 13:16:21 Source Device: [1:0:0] SONY BDRW BWU-100A 1.0a (D:) (ATA)

I 13:16:21 Source Media Type: DVD-R (Book Type: DVD-R) (Disc ID: ProdiscF01) (Speeds: 4x, 6x)

 

The only spare drive I could find was this cool new BD drive and the only discs around were some junky Prodisc. :&

I threw the drive in the Dell (no tools needed) and ImgBurn saw the drive, burned and verified, no questions asked. Gotta Love IB!

 

Thanks!

There's newer firmware available for your $700 toy, if you feel like playing around...

Thanks for the firmware link!

"A Firmware Has Being Update."

 

Now I just need to get my hands on some BD-R's to play with before anybody comes looking for the drive.
