Well funny enough, after reading many posts not only in afterdawn.com but also other sites, it turns out ppl with the SD-R5002 burner from Toshiba have experienced problems using NERO. So I decided to try out Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 and sure enough it worked on the first try. Although the second burn failed. I'm assuming it was a media problem. Will try again and let ppl know.
fuderyuu, I'm afraid you could well be right. I used to be a keen Nero supporter, but not any more. My advice would be to steer well clear of Nero at the present time. HomerJ
Well after 7 discs (Optodisc OR470-000) only one was successfull (the first i mentioned earlier). These are the errors i now get with Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 E8004187b: Disc error - corrupted format - [05/30/05] E80041934: TrackWriter error - Flush failed - [T7127] E80041925: TrackWriter error - Command retry failed - [T7118] E8004187b: Disc error - corrupted format - [05/30/05] E80004005: Unspecified error once again.. thanks in advance.
I just bought this drive a couple of days ago since the price was only 200$. I have only burned 2 movies. I used a Maxell DVD-RW and a DVD-R burned movies perfectly. I don't think these drives work well with OPTODISC media. just get better media and you should be fine.
thank you carlito - i figured as much... but i just spent 60 on the optodisc media, just wanted to find some way around it.
I have tried whitelabel and sentinel dvd-rws. Manufacturer info is OPTODISCK001. Non worked in toshiba 5002. Works fine in pioneer a05. I have burned on Verbatim dvd-rws about 10-15 times without probs. Now I started getting sense errors with verbs also. I use recordnow max and nero. After full erase discs works almost always.
Bog and others, So i forgot to update this when i found a solution. Aparently the damned drive doesnt like optodisc DVD-Rs (at least not allways out of 15 that i have tried now, only one sucess so i am giving up) and definately hates Optodisc DVD-RWs even moreso. I decided to update my ASPI drivers to the current ones from adaptec and try some Riteks. I'll be damned if I have yet to burn a coaster with those DVD-Rs. Well I lie, I did burn two coasters but I was using DVDxCopy. As soon as i used nero and Roxio's EZ CD & DVD Creator it worked! Thank u all.
I bought this drive about a month ago. No problems writing to Imation Dvd-R, but can't erase Imation DVD-RW disks at all. Tried Nero, Easy CD 6, no luck. Have tried Memorex DVD-rw's. Seem to erase a little better.
