I just picked up the LiteOn-52327s today, it's my first LiteOn experience as I was a long time LG fan. I did some reading test on it and the results were really bad, I wonder if anyone else has the same problem or what is wrong with this thing, here are 2 examples of 2 CDs tested on my LiteOn 166s and my new 52327s.
Kprobe 1.126
Reading Test 1 (CD-R #1, TY)
LiteOn 166s: C1 Max= 14, Total= 343, Average= 0.070
LiteOn 52327s: C1 Max= 426, Total= 636139, Average= 130.517
Reading Test 2 (CD-R #2, MCC)
LiteOn 166s: C1 Max= 5, Total= 27, Average= .007
LiteOn 52327s: C1 Max= 9, Total= 890, Average= 0.242
What's wrong with the reading ability on this drive? why is it so bad?
is it a defective drive like many people here have been reporting about LiteOn?
Ian in your review of this drive what made you use the 52246s to test the write quality instead of the 52327s which was used to burn the test CDs?
I did the CDDEA scatch test also my results were very good just like your Ian, but why is it so bad at reading on every other tests?
