- Compatibility with WSES software
The drive is recognized from the WSES software.
Unfortunately the drive dos not work with the C1/C2 measurement test
But it works with the Read C1/C2 error count only when the media doesn't contain many C2 errors. Below are two results, one with a good disc, and one with a highly damaged disc, where the software aborts the C1/C2 counting...
