Nero DiscSpeed is a benchmark which can test the most important features of an optical drive. These tests include: Transfer rate, Seek times, CPU (Central Processing Unit) usage, Burst rate, DAE (Digital Audio Extraction) quality & Spinup/spindown time. It can also check the CD (Compact Disk) and DVD (Digital Versatile Disk) media quality.

Updating my earlier review: 5 stars. This is the best cd/dvd/bd read error reporting software out there in terms of features, support for various drives and tweakability. Other alternatives include kProbe, Plextools Pro and PxScan, but they are manufacturer specific. NB! You must learn how to interpret the results as they will not directly tell you the quality of the disc/burn. The software only reports what the drive sees (i.e. read errors).
