CD #6 Burned @8x:

I have to admit that I found these results a little surprising. Not only did both LiteON drives reportedly produce horrible amounts of C1 errors, but even the Plextor Premium (which normally does very well at slower speeds) had a lower then usual quality burn! This may be due to the media being (supposedly) more optomised for higher speed recording.

Unfortunately, similarly to the Plextor Premium not having the option to burn CD-Rs at speeds of 48x, the LiteON 401s is not capable of burning CD-Rs at 8x or lower. As you can see, the LiteON 48125W once again had a very difficult time burning this media, and my tests showed a very large amount of C1 errors, especially near the end of the disc! Oddly enough, the Plextor Premium drive had an upswing in quality, and went on to perform better then almost any other test on this media! And now, on to the conclusion!
