Even MCC 03 which I was already getting 96/97% improved to 97/99% using this method.
Martin in case you don't know TY & yuden are Taiyo Yuden, MCC is Verbatim & Infiniti.

Edit.
Pioneer 109 12x for MCC 004 16x MCC03. Nec 3540 stock f/w the same as Pioneer, with L & D's 1.W5 16x for MCC 004 & MCC 03.
thank you,zebadee.

oh, i never knew solid burn worked this way...as a matter of fact, with Solid Burn defaulted off, i wasted 3 MCC004's. 1st got 0, 2nd 75, 3rd some 70 which i dont remember and then i got busy crying. i didn't know even when it's a known media, i should turn solid burn on.
what happens if i reinstall the system or upgrade firmware? do i have to teach my 1640 again? is there anything i can do to store its memory?

thanks again!
