I have an LG BH10LS30 blu-ray writer drive, which sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.
The reality is I probably should have sent it back when I bought it, but it only ever got rare use since it is used mainly to back data up to Blu-Ray or DVD, and since it did seem to work most of the time at least initially, it was a while before I realized there might be a problem
However, I am now at the point where I must find out for certain whether the drive really is faulty or not... but how to test it?
That is my question... is there particular software I can use for diagnosis?
This drive has been fitted internally and externally at different points on different machines and I can see no correlation between when it does and doesn't work and how it is connected to what PC. Hence wanting some proper diagnosis methodology...
It always shows up correctly in Device Manager btw
