How to test a DVD Burner

  • grab a DVD/RW drive
  • set the jumper in the master position
  • plug the DVD/RW into the machine. Remember both the power and the ribbon cable.
  • boot the computer into Ubuntu
  • grab a blank dvd/rw disk (if there are none, ask Jared)
    • first simulate
    • Second write some files to the disk, and make sure the program verifies
  • Make a Sticker for the drive. the sticker should say its a "DVD/RW", its speed "**X" and "OK"
