Bad drive?
Posted: Fri May 27, 2011 10:23 pm
Hi there,
I have owned and used this drive for a few months now.
It works ok, however I have a lot of DVDs to rip (going through my collection of 400 or so). Therefore, I decided to buy a faster drive that does DVD only. This is the new drive I purchased.
The other night I tried ripping a DVD from the new drive, and I encountered a bunch of "Error 'Scsi error - HARDWARE ERROR: TIMEOUT ON LOGICAL UNIT' occurred while reading" reports. It ran considerably slow, and after an hour or so it had only completed like 1% of the task. So I just aborted the rip.
I then tried to rip the same DVD in my original drive, and it completed after about half an hour or so.
I have ripped about 4 DVDs with the new drive so far, and this was the only one to have a problem, so I know the drive works to some extent.
Any idea what could be going on here?
Thank you
Les
