- Writing Quality

In order to test the LiteON SOHW-1633S DVD+R DL writing quality, we used the LiteOn SOHD-167T and the Plextor PX-712A drives.

Traxdata Double Layer media @ 2.4X

Using Nero CD/DVD Speed we got the above scan, indicating good quality writing performance with this media. Speed was automatically reduced when the drive started to read the second layer, but no errors were reported during the reading process.

On the other hand, using Plextools, we got the above scan. You can see that high PI/PIF levels were reported, higher than the 280 limit. However, no errors were observed. We hope to see LiteON improve DL writing quality with future firmware releases.
