--- Comment #2 from Gordon <gordoneki at web.de> ---
On an additional note, always perform test burns on write-once discs using data
you would have burned anyway.
Writing junk data on write-once discs for testing is wasteful.

I did it once using Nero DiscSpeed's testing feature to see if Nero's warning
is just a bluff, because I could not imagine something as "simulated writing"
not to work. But it wrote actual data. What I found out is that it writes the
drive model at the end on DVD plus discs in a way only DiscSpeed itself
recognizes it. Because only DVD-R and -RW (not sure about -RAM) store the
"recorder information" (drive model) in a dedicated section.
