Another "unreadable" disc. Let's see how the LG drive does when reading the same disc.
Again we see that with a disc that is "borderline" as far as burning quality is concerned, when read with a drive different to the one used to do the writing, there's no guarantee that it won't fail altogether, let alone complete the reading process.
The DaTARIUS scans also confirm the not so good writing quality with high POF counts towards the end of the disc, which is where the Lite-On drive had problems. As an observation, it is interesting that the DaTARIUS Analyser has so far, not had problems reading to the end of any disc, whereas the Lite-On drive has failed on two occasions. I say interesting because commercial drives will usually fail, only after making several attempts when reading over problem spots, while the DaTARIUS Analyser is designed to only make one attempt or pass. This enhances the view that the final readability of a disc is not only dependent on the burner used or the media itself, but also on the reading drive as well. Had we used something other than the Lite-On DVDRW LH-20A1P KL05, there's no doubt we would have had entirely different results.
