DVD-R/RW Writing Performance:

In these tests we will be using a Lite-On DH20A3P drive along with Nero CD-DVD Speed to measure the disc quality. We will also be using the BenQ DW1655 along with Nero CD-DVD Speed for our read-back tests.

Just would like to confirm, this model won't write or read blu-ray recordables with the new organic dye this article is talking about, right?

It will not write to any Blu-ray or HD discs, it is a Read Only for Blu-ray or HD-DVD

Hi. I'm a newbie to Bd/Hd before i buy the reader(Lg GGC-H20L0) will it be able to read the new organic dye disc coming out. :g
Posted by Gary Hepting (guest) on Thursday 01 May 2008 05:41
I have owned my LG Super Multi Combo Drive (model GGC-H20L) for 6 weeks now and it suddenly stopped working...
I can't get the drive to show up at all -- it causes the P.O.S.T. to take about 120 seconds or better to scan the IDE/SATA channels and never finds it... Windows XP can't see it either any more...

Can anyone help me?

In reality, is there any point to more than 1.5x transfer speed on BD-ROM at present? The only media out there at the moment in BD-ROM format is BD movies and they only require a 1.5x speed player/ROM. Testing the read speed on BD movies at faster than 1.5x is really a synthetic test only since the movies will only be read at 1.5x.

It may be years before games or apps ever come out on BD-ROM and it's not really economically viable for most of us to get a BD Burner yet. BD-R media can be read at the higher speeds.

Now you have the same model number that can write BD also. Is this only a matter of flashing software?
