The SONY CRX-220E1 writing quality with several media can be judged as good. With specific media the drive performed very well, but with some media caused C2 errors. The best quality results came from with Mitsubishi Chemicals 48X certified media (finally a good result from a LiteOn based drive!) while the best burning results (2:29mins) from Ciba Plasmon 48X media.
- C1/C2 Error rate from SKC 80min 16X @ 52X (SmartBurn On)
- C1/C2 Error rate from CibaPlasmon Yuden 80min 48X @ 52X (SmartBurn On)
- C1/C2 Error rate from Prodisc 80min 40X @ 52X (SmartBurn On)
- C1/C2 Error rate from SanyoDigital 80min 32X @ 40X (SmartBurn On)
