I successfully managed to burn Battlefield 3 disc 2 on a MAXELL DL (Ritek S04-066) with forced 2.4x speed (using Media Code Speed Edit). Verified with NERO DiscSpeed, all green. Still got to run the quality test in KProbe. All other settings at default, meaning: HT and OT <--OFF and Smart Burn <-- ON.

Strange that cheaper media worked for me (my first successful backup on LiteON Ihas 124-B )  . Nevertheless, I still have to run a bunch of test and hopefully find a proper way to make 100% working XGD3 backups with verbs. Perhaps the 2.4x speed is the answer... in my case.

Yup mate, external enclousure works fine!
You are putting power to the drive yeah? Not just the sata cable mate.. sounds stupid but it would be a pretty common mistake..

yea true i know its a common mistake, it has happened to me before i confess (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)  not this time though... turns out that conceptronic adapter i bought just doesnt work the way it is supposed to. Upon trying  to detect the drive with the 360usbPro everything went smooth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) thanks for the heads up though

Why you dont use your 360usbPro and the external molex/ sata power supply with your iHAS124-19B? that work too

thanks for the info it worked great. I detected the drive, flashed it and burned a complete XGD3  with the notebook thanks to the 360usbPro  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)  now just one question (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)   everytime i burn an xgd3 i will have to connect the burner to my notebook via the usbPro... does that put too much stress on it? i always burn at the slowest  speed possible so thats like 1 hour  to burn and verify... 1 hour of using the 360 usbPro as a transfer cable (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

 also big thanks to c4eva and his team for all the work

Actually it was made for that purpose in mind (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
The X360USB PRO includes the following features:

•Connect any SATA device to any PC or laptop via USB

1Hour it get hots but i think is fine

DVD Burner iHAS124B

TRAXDATA 8X (RITEK-S04-66)

Firmware modified with MediaCodeSpeedEdit (Used RicohJPN 2,4x to change RITEK-S04-66).

OPC off
other settings unchanged
Burn 2,4x ok
100% verified ok
VERBATIM 8X (MKM003)

OPC on
other settings unchanged
Burn 4x ok
100% verified ok

MediaCodeSpeedEdit did the trick for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

DVD Burner iHAS324-32B

RiTEK DVD+R DL 8X (RITEK-S04-066)

OPC off
other settings unchanged
Burn 2,4x ok
100% verified ok
Installed on xbox 360 hdd ok

Don't have access to Vertabim blanks at the moment, however I'v tried various combo settings to getting the burns to work on RiTEK's with no luck.

Used MediaCodeSpeedEdit to edit the firmware and reflashed my iHAS.

As suggested I changed the settings around for:

RICOHJPN - D00-001 -2.4x => Changed to RITEK - S04-066 - 8x, 6x, 4x
RITEK - S04-066 - 8x, 6x, 4x => Changed to RICOHJPN - D00-001 -2.4x

I was then able to burn at 2.4x with the RiTEK's and 100% verified ok.

So if you have a stock pile of the RiTEK's, why not give the above settings a try.

This evening I updated my 74850C to LT Plus v2.0 and tried burning disks in my iHAS124 B using a variety of settings.
No matter what I do, I put the disk into the 360, and it spins like normal - but within a few seconds it does a big clunk and then carries on fast for a few more seconds, then slows down.  It looks like its starting to boot - but then I get stuck with a black screen.

I actually tried loading the 360 up with the disk already in the drive.  I can see its splash screen, and even copy it onto my HD.  When I try to play it, I get the same clunk noise!

My disk verified and seemed to burn ok using verbatim MKM003's at 2.4X with OPC off, Forced Hypertuning off and Smartburn on.

I did try some older disks and they play fine.  Is it my burning thats wrong, or is it my actual FW on 74850C (or 02510C as its now known)??

hmm not good results for me

IHAS124b flashed correctly to C4eva Burnermax CFW for 124 drive (no crossflash)

using verbatim mk003 discs at 4 speed, OPC on, all other settings on except overspeed

only 1 out of 6 discs burns and verifies 100%, most fail bewteen 55 and 90% while verifying.

5 spool gone and only 4 good discs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

my forza 4 disc 2 verifies 100% but wont install to HDD, fails at 24% every time i try it.

not happy with this new burner at all, wasting a ton of discs here ffs.

anyone got any advice? should i burn at 2.4?

it could be the sata chipset you are using

Whats been the most reliable drive? I grabbed an iHAS324-98 B yesterday flashed with 324B MAX and I dont think its a good combination with my nForce 680i SLI chipset. I burned Gears 3 8 times, all clean burns no errors but verify is a no go at 50% on all. Using RITEK-S04-66 media. Tried every setting possibilities on this thread. Any insight to help me out would be appreciated. Thanks.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Verbs are the only ones recomended, you can get others to work with a bit of messing around. Suggest you spend time reading these posts.

So are there any correct/ compatible sata chipsets that work with this drive? Or is it just hit or miss with this support of burning 100% XGD3 buckups by LiteON without truncate/overburn.

I think im in love with these 8x verbatims, the 2.4x ones dont read in the xbox as good, and they also have alot of errors around the layerbreak.
