The blue laser diode's preliminary testing was a a few PS3 discs; this worked in a way, as it \"recognized\" the PS3 discs - rather than the drive responding as 'No Disc', anyway.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nI then got two different brands of 10 - 25GB Blu-ray rewritable discs (BD-RE) and inserted one of each disc to test the blue laser diode. The drive does recognize the discs: one Ritek (Smartbuy) and one CMC Magnetics (Verbatim).<br \/>\n<br \/>\nNeed a candidate for testing BD-RE burning, and I think it will be the old-stash MST3K movie set I found on TPB \/years\/ ago. Of course, the 4TB scratch disk and the old homemade DVD\/CD sets will be involved."}
