Like it says! I have a Liteon 32x12x40, and I know the 24x10x40 can correctly read and write EFM encoding. On CloneCD's web site it shows just one of them. But the 32x12x40 is new, so how I can I tell???

The 32X will do everything the 24X does, but faster

Yeah, but Elaborate Bytes does not show it on there web site. Under supported writers!

They alway take a while to update that.

Here is another link that tells if something can do sd2 or not

P.S. this doesnot include ver 2.51.xx

They will. And for EFM encoding You can check it with prepared file - You can find it in my post (LG 16x and SD 2.51).

I downloaded that file of yours, and did what you said. It work just on your file! But I try some different games, nothing happen! Clone would not make a image. So what now?

If the problem is making an image, make sure you have Fast Error Skip checked, read retries =0, error correction = software

I tried 0 retries, error correction = software. But it keeps jumping to hardware. That's fine.

Got it to work finally!! When it first start copying the image it takes about 2 minutes. I thought it was shorter. But that was me. So thank you guy's!!!!!

Awesome...., i forgot to add that it is not that accurate and it depends wholly on the users who e-mail them and tell them whether something worked or not. So e-mail them and tell them that it works.

I have successfully backed up Max Payne with my old burner Plextor 12/10/32A using CloneCD and enabling Read SubChannel Data. I don't believe it's protected by SD2 but SD v1 tho :)
