A little help with backups

Post by gatorlee »

Trying to burn a couple backups. burned with imgburn and got half way through and got an error message unable to verify. Placed backup in 360 "unreadable disc clean disc and retry" repeatedly, gone through 4 discs now. Any suggestions?

Can somebody also tell me why I am getting hated on why other people in other posts are asking some of the exact same questions I am asking?

I made an iso image with an accompanied dvd file burned with imgburn. @ 50% imgburn said unable to verify and continue. I took the game backup out of the burner placed it in the 360 it attempted to read and said clean disc and restart 360. Used verbatims imgburn @ auto write speed.

I'm, not trying to offend you man, because quite frankly, I could care less what your source for your backups is, but in this case, rip an original.

Other issues aside I think that I may have found to the original issue at hand for creating the backups. I believe that it is the write speed of IMGburn. At first I had it on AWS and it had always worked fine, but the last few I tried were not working so I tried an older game @ 1x and it worked. I am now trying a newer game at the same speed and will report. Does anyone by chance know approximately how many burns you can make per drive?
