LiteOn SOHW-832S, DUAL LAYER

[lufcfan]

Nope - can't agree jackng. I use Ritek G04 media in my 832S all the time and I've had nothing but perfect backups using the VS0A Firmware

Well lufcfan, looks like you did have a good batch of the Ritek G04 media, I bought mine from ebay (4x Ritek Printable) and they sucks.

Lots of people has complain of the quality of Ritek Media varies too much, so it's really a matter of luck when it comes to Ritek media (not particularly only at G04). You might like to head over Here to read about the media for Liteon

Lucky you mate...where did u get them?? I've so far burned abt 400+ disc, and 100 of them where the ritek printable that only works well with my pioneer. I kind of gave up the -r disc now, since the +r disc are the same price. Oh do try the Ritek Excellent Disc that I mention about, you'll be very surprise to see it burn very well at 8x despite being a 4x disc

Or at least a better variation of the Lite-On burner. Just like ps2's not all ps2's are the same quality. Even within the same models.

I think it's more than coincidence that I have had ALL working discs from all these places, don't you?

I got a old liteon, its a LDW-411s and it burns perfect on ritek and just about every media i have tried so far. In fact my next burner will be the 832S over the A07. Nothing against Pioneer, i got a A05, i just like the Liteon burner better. To me the 411S seems to out perform the A05

hate to tell you the 411s is the crapest liteon ever made, you must be the only person in the world that likes it, i had it. It gave crap burn quality, crap media support it was just plain crap. people at cdfreaks.com agree

Guess i am just lucky like lufcfan . I dont know about Gamefreax but the people at www.cdrlabs.com give the liteon burners a excellent review. BTW, i see in your signature you got a liteon 832s, If liteon burners are crap and the 411s you had was so crappy then WHY did you buy another one
