Which drive should I use?

May 17, 2012, 10:30 PM

I recalled seeing on here, or perhaps on another site, a listing of cd drives with accuracy rates and other information, but cannot seem to locate it now. I have three different drives I could use to begin ripping my collection (2500+), and am unsure what the best option would be. The three are:

1. Hitachi HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4247N in my Lenovo T60 laptop

2. Optiarc DVD RW AD-7710H in my Lenovo B570 laptop

3. Sony DVD/CD RW DRX-830U external drive

Or is there some relatively inexpensive option out there that surpasses any of these? I appreciate any assistance given. Thank you.

AccurateRip collects data from all drives, normally this is only used to verify a disc is accurate, but can be reversed to calculate which drives are the most accurate (as measured by lowest % inaccurate tracks). This test was previously run in 2010, 2009 and 2006, as time goes on more submissions give a greater meaning to

Avoid the optiarc
