After many requests from our readers we flash our PX-708A recorder with the latest available firmware, the v1.06, and we made some extra recording tests.
This time the software we used for our measurements was Kprobe v.2.1.0 and the reader LiteOn LDW-811S. The reading speed was set to maximum and the ECC at 8.

The writing quality has been improved while the drive supports more media. Certified 4X DVD+R media burned at 8X. The writing quality is also good here. However there were some cases, with the BenQ media, where the PI/PO levels were increased. Once you are using well known brands you won't have any problems.
