- DVD Overburning Tests

Using Nero CD-DVD Speed, we tested if the NEC ND-2510A can overburn using DVD+R and DVD-R media. Unfortunately, the drive does not support overburning, giving the following error with all inserted media.

  • DVD-R media

  • DVD+R media

- DVD+MRW Tests

The NEC ND-2510A does not support Mount Rainier.
