SONY DRU-710A Dual DVD±RW Recorder - Page 20

For checking exactly what the DRU-710A reports, we used three different media, burned with other recorders. The media was then measured with the well known AudioDev SA300 DVD CATS system at 1X.

The drive reports only PI/PIF errors, we will compare those measurements at various reading speeds:

• 3~8X CAV
• 2~6X CAV
• 4X CLV

Please note that the posted results are only valid for the specific tested DRU-710A drive. Using another drive can produce totally different results. Be aware!

#3rd Test Disc - PISum8/PIF Comparison - 8X Reading speed

#3rd Test Disc - PISum8/PIF Comparison - 6X Reading speed

6X and 8X had similar results but they were totally different from those of the SA300.

#3rd Test Disc - PISum8/PIF Comparison - 4X Reading speed

The PI/PIF error rate trend lines are similar to the SA300 only in the case of 4X scanning.
