Got a drive capable of the D8 command yet, I'm still having issues getting my Audio Track hashes to match up,  was hoping if I posted it here, someone would be able to spot my error if that's possible.

I've went through all my EAC settings a number of times so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong,  any insight would be great.

Thanks

Does anyone know if the newest Plextor drives still support  d8h?  Looking at purchasing a drive to replace one that is dying and was looking at the PX-L890SA.  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6827249066

Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped get this working. I have the process down now, and have the audio trap disc working.  At this point I think I may have a bad drive as I can usually get about 900 MB off the disc, but the last sections 99% of the time give me read errors when using DCDumper,  I got one disc to initial dump through the entire disc, but then in the next attempts got nothing but read errors the last sections each of the last 10 attempts.  Everything it rips before it gets to the last sections always come up matching, that's why I think I have a bad drive.  

10 minutes after complaining about the drive I finally get it to do a successful rip, I love it how those things work out sometimes.

Thanks again.

Thanks, tried standard CD and yes it was able to stop the motor.  I tried burning the Trap Disc with Clone CD and Alcohol from the guide and I can't seem to get it to burn correctly.  I found something online called the DrinkTeam GD-ROM Trap Disc, and I was able to get that to burn successfully and use it for a Trap Disc.  I can now get it to accurately pull up to around section 30 with DC Dumper, but after section 30 it will not read another section (and its only going to section 35),  just keeps giving read errors.  So I'm guessing the trap disc still isn't right.  So I will keep playing with it.  Thanks again for the help.

I have a Vantec Nexstar-DX USB enclosure,  I was already running startstop.exe as administrator, but if  02:04:01 means that the Logical Unit is in the process of becoming ready could that mean I'm not getting a good Audio Trap CD?  I've burnt 3 copies and they all behave the same.

Thanks

I have a SH-D162C drive I bought with the intention of backing up my Dreamcast games.  I have it in a USB External enclosure,  but I am having a hard time getting starstop.exe to stop the drive motor.  I'm not sure if this is because I have it in an external drive enclosure.  I have installed the Kreon firmware installed as I want to back up my important XBOX titles as well (which I have successfully done).  Any tips as to what I might be doing wrong? 

This is what it tells me:
