Hello.
Sounds like to me you might be experiencing a high number of errors during the reading, causing the burner to throttle back to pio mode.. An easy way to check is to right click on "My computer" left click "properties" and then open the "hardware " tab and then "device manager" and then open "secondary IDE channel and then "Advanced settings" if it shows your device is running in Pio Mode, you need to change it back to DMA. (Ultra DMA mode 2) ok i checked this before and during my DVD ripping. both times it showed the current transfer mode as being "Ultra DMA mode 2". however you could of been right with the read errors thing, because it did have a bunch of small scrathes. i just "backed up" another one of my DVDs right now and it started off at 5,700 KB/s and after a few minutes increased all the way to 7,900!!! the total completion time at the end was 17 min flat, whereas that first one was 30 min. AMAZING. you guys have been a great help.Nephilim i will definetly heed your suggestion on investing in a Lite-On DVD reader solely for my ripping needs. i just hope it will perform as fast, if not more, than my Plextor.
