Whether the files contain random data, video, or secret plans for building the Death Star, makes no difference.
Provided the disc will play so.....this test is flawed as there is no way to watch it and the disc was never copied back to the hard drive.

There has to be a better way to test discs and using Nero doesn't do it.
