RAW Mode Writing on TEAC 56/58s Drives

Source: http://CDRInfo


Tweak to make the TEAC 56s & 58s compatible with DAO RAW!
"..On the rear panel, there is a row of 8 jumpers were you can select the SCSI ID of the drive, terminator, ... the normal stuff. But, if you put a jumper on the pin 6 (0 - based), the 56s or 58s will turn into a 55s, and thus the drive will be 100% compatible with BR images (will NOT correct data as they are written).

This tweak is provided "as is", use it AT YOUR OWN RISK. At this time, we've had 3 reports that it worked, and we've personnally tested it on a 58s, and found it OK. It does even write at x8 when you select MAX SPEED on CDRWIN 3.8a (nevertheless the 55 bios is supposedly limited to x4 writing.
