Due to a known bug in the Plextor firmware, any dump of these discs made using a Plextor and any tool is likely to be bad. It incorrectly reports the total number of errors, usually multiplying this by 2 or 3 times.
For example, when dumping http://redump.org/disc/53929/ with either DIC or redumper and a Plextor drive, the error count is incorrectly reported as 1516, exactly double the correct 758 errors
An incorrect _c2Error log looks as follows:
LBA[002312, 0x00908] Detected C2 error 380 bit
LBA[002313, 0x00909] Detected C2 error 20 bit
A correct _c2Error log looks as follows:
LBA[002312, 0x00908] Detected C2 error 300 bit
LBA[002322, 0x00912] Detected C2 error 300 bit
These discs can be correctly dumped using a non-Plextor drive and any of the following tools:
- DIC (using an ASUS or compatible firmware drive)
- redumper
- CloneCD (note: may require fixing with CDMage and manual replacement of error sectors with 0x55)
