The same Nero compilation used in the previous jitter tests was used once again, this time with media from different brands. The recording speed was the maximum in all cases. The following graphs indicate the 3T Pit & Land Jitter results.

- 3T Pit results

According to the results we took from the jitter measurements, the Samsung performed well with some of the media brands we used. BenQ, MAM and Taiyo Yuden proved to be very good combinations with the Samsung recorder, whereas MMore and Traxdata media returned high jitter results.

The average 3T Jitter values for all manufacturers discs are illustrated in the following graph.

- 3T Land results

The land jitter values were almost at the same levels as with 3T pit jitter, where once again only BenQ, MAM and Taiyo Yuden media produced acceptable results.

- Summary

The drive performed poorly with two of the media brands, MMore and Traxdata, while with BenQ, MAM and Taiyo Yuden media it had very good values
