| Difference between DVD+RW quick/full erase Hi, first sorry for my not perfectly english, but to my question: When I burn something to DVD+RW´s on my Lite-On 1633s (BSOK) I always have better quality, when I make full erase before burning. When I only quick erase the disc, the quality is not so good (but still acceptable). Is this normal or something is wrong? I see no difference in quality between quick/full erase by CD-RW... Here some scan´s: The first shows compilation burned after quick erase, the second shows the same compilation burned on the same disc after full erase. |

| Re: Difference between DVD+RW quick/full erase Welcome  Just a guess, but it may have something to do with the reflectivity of a disc that is erased, compared to one that has data on it already. *shrugs* As I say, just a guess though, but it does seem to make a difference.

| Re: Difference between DVD+RW quick/full erase @ sbehring I think a quick erase just deletes the Table Of Contents, whereas the full erase removes all data and writes just 0000.... A quick erase will leave the data which can be read by some programs, so if it is sensitive data, a full erase is better for security purposes. A full erase can also be better in some circumstances to start 'fresh' when problems arise with writing/reading. |
