I've been able to write files in the range of 1 kB - 2 GB on an HP dvd200i drive in UDF.
i'm about to do the same test on an 100i drive.
same test completed successfully on the HP dvd 100i on the first try. The second run (after re-formatting the disk), ended in hanging the drive -repetitive sounds were generated from the drive (you know, the kind that show that the drive is not able to read the disk).
also, i got this : sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Synchronize Cache 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Info fld=0x230430, Current sr00:00: sense key Medium Error
i am about to switch back to the 200i drive to see if this problem is specifc to the 100i drive, or whether i have a bad media.
on the 100i drive, writing a 2GB file ended in an error message (after writing ~600MB) specifying that there were no space left on the device. The drive kept on trying to access the media, and generated a million messages like this one in the kernel ring: scsi0: ERROR on channel 0, id 0, lun 0, CDB: Request Sense 00 00 00 40 00 Info fld=0x47130, Current sd0b:00: sense key Medium Error I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 1178840 on the 200i drive things seem to work fine. The "scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 50348, scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Synchronize Cache 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00" messages seem to have disappeared for good. :] gustavo
