minaelromany · 18-03-2007

I've just borrowed a Sony 830A drive from a frend for testing , it was manufactured on 6 February 2007 with firmware SS25 and it doesn't support scanning ( or to be more accurate it is a horrible scanner )

I think it is plagued with the same "bug" in newer Samsung 182D drives , I was thinking about trading it for my Pioneer 111L drive but now I don't think so.

Is there anyway toimprove its scanning ability or is it hardware related ?
