I have had a Yamaha CRW6416S interal for some time and have done
almost no recording with it. Had a few problems doing so and today
did some more extensive work and learned I am having tons of trouble.
Sounds like a bad drive -- or maybe bad disks? -- and I wanted to run
the symptoms by the folks here for a judgement.
Yamaha CRW6416S interal, firmware 1/.0d
in a Macintosh 8500/120 with MacOS 8.6
Retrospect 4.3
Also Adaptec Toast 3.5.7
I created a backup on four CDs but when I did a Verify, two of them
failed to read. I loaded them in and Retrospect can't recognize them
-- sees them as "Erased."
So I used Adaptec Toast to write a session (Mac files format, Write
Session) and for three disks, the verify came back with:
Sector 2626 is unreadable.
Attempting to write again yielded "You cannot write to this CD."
I am beginning to think I cannot write to this CD. ;-)
So what do you think? Bad drive? Cheap CD-Rs? I have also had odd
problems with CD-RWs and this drive.
