Question burn mdisc and test drive

[nandobadam]

What is the best software to burn MDisc DVD? I have an Lite-On ATAPI iHAS 122 F F EL06 DVD drive

Is it possible to test if a sata dvd drive is good without having to insert a disc?

I see that some Lite-On iHAS 122 models support M-Disc DVD but I have the Lite-On ATAPI iHAS 122 F EL06 model and I don't know if it supports M-Disc DVD burning. What is the best software to check and which software is good for updating the firmware of this drive?

I haven't burned a disc in ages, but Nero: Burning ROM was my go-to solution back then.

You can tell which discs a drive supports by looking it up on the manufacturer web page.

And you don't need to update your firmware, unless there is a fatal flaw with the drive that the manufacturer issued an update for.

I don't think MDisc needs special software, so whichever.
One option: https://cdburnerxp.se/

Not sure what's to test without a disc. If the PC recognizes the drive, and the tray can be opened, great. Next: use a disc.

Official firmware updates are self-executing packages. There's no 3rd party software needed to apply them.

I use CDBurnerXP.

CDBurnerXP: Downloads

It's very easy to use, comprehensive and has loads of all the right features.

It doesn't. MDisc burning is handled completely automatically by the drive firmware. Nice to see someone else uses CDBurnerXP.

And it has XP in the name! So it can't be anything but good. I use it too.

InfraRecorder showed promise, but development stopped early, and I think there's no BD support.

(Not that CDBurnerXP is feature-complete, but it's more mature.)

CDBurnerXP is very easy to use. Take an hour to get play with it and get to know what it can do for you and you'll be very happy with it.

Yes, it will verify recordings as a final step.

It seems to be plain old dvd dual layer and cd-r. No M-disc or blu-ray.

Are you looking to buy it, or have it and need it to work?

Cross-flashing a LiteOn DVD burner

I dunno just how often people buy DVD burners, lol, but maybe someone will find this useful. LiteOn make a range of DVD burners called the iHAS series. What's cool about particular models of these drives is that the hardware is all the same, but the features are only limited by the firmware which...
