I'm wondering if this is average or what. The burner was a Plextor

12/10/32A. I
was expecting more burns out of it but I don't really know if I should

have or
not. Thanks.


I burned, literally, thousands of discs on my Plextor 8/4/32. Awesome
machine...it never once let me down and i always burn at 4x.

This is the reason i bought the latest Plextor Premium, it's a quality
product and quality burns.

My primary writer, a Plextor 1210s, has burned a few thousand discs and
so far is running as new. What (other than the 'diagnosis' of the
salesman for your next drive) leads you to believe that it has died?
