- Summary

UmDoctor showed that the Optorite provided quality CD-R writing with TY discs, while the AM and Benq, from Plasmon and Acer respectively gave back high C1 errors. In the case of the AM disc, a lot of C2 errors were reported and the disc was not readable with the Optorite DD0405, as well as all other drives we tested it with.
