I'm not sure really... hmmm... the drive we've got here is one bought from an All Format's fair a while back, using it through an SDI. Now, without the slight spinup mod I made to the code, it's always not readY (after which you can repeat the command, and it'll read the disc properly, as you might expect). Everything else works fine, and when I made the mod, hey presto, that was fine too... Si
