C1 / C2 Error Measurements

We measured the C1/C2 error rate on the recorded discs we burned at the various supported writing speeds. The software we used is PleXTools Professional v2.16, using the built-in Q-Check utility. The reader was the Plextor PX-712A (firmware v1.04)

- Summary

In general the writing quality was very good, however with two media, we notice not only C2 but also CU at the end of the disc. This should be improved with future firmware...
