Yesterday I decided tidy up all my old ultra-scratchy cd´s.
When I tried to read from one of the really messed up cd´s the drive made a funny crackling noise, but continued like nothing had happened.
Later when I tried to burn a cd, Nero refused to read data from it.
When I copy files in explorer it works (sometimes), with a remarkably slow speed that is.
I ran a cd benchmark in Sisoft Sandra and got a result similar to a x8 cdrom, mine
is/was in fact a x32 drive.
So, here I am...in need of burning loads of cd´s but without a drive to do it for me.
Any suggestions?
Shall I open it and poke around a little.
Maybe I better bring it to the store and get it replaced?
What do you think?
Yes, don´t say it...I know I´m a sucker and that I should expect it to break apart.
But, hey...that´s me.
Btw, it´s a stupid Sony.
