Results:
By suprise all tests completed ok!. I done above 50 CDs on 8x during the various tests ,many in sequence, and Yamaha 8424s wrote them without any problem. Overburn worked ok in 74 & 80min CDs. It is pretty nice to have a full CD (650mb) on 9.15mins ! I also done various burns with both Yamaha 8424s (8x) & 4416s (4x) at the same time and problem apeared..I didn't had from all tests not a single coaster. Yamaha 8424s has the same problem with buffer size as previous models. Feurio (for example) uses only 3.0mb of 4.0mb total. Why this happens ? Check FAQ page.
