How do I check if my Plextor 12/10/32 and TDK Velocd 12/10/32 can read sub-channel data?

I have a Plextor 12/10/32, a TDK Velocd 12/10/32, an older Memorex 36x, and a new Digital Research 40x. I would like to verify which, if any of these drives can read sub-channel data, but I am not sure how to go about it.

I know some Plextors and some TDKs do, and some don't. I am just not sure what program I need to use to check.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Have Diablo II? Disk 2 needs you to select subchannel data in Clone CD, try it out and see if it works.

CDspeed99 has a test disk that you make and then perform some tests on your burner. It tests your burner's ability to read subchannel data as one of the tests. Its a pretty nice utility to have. Check it out here. CD Speed99

Thanks all. I don't have Diablo II but I just downloaded CDSpeed99 and will give that a try in a little while. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again

Thanks cheetoden, CDSpeed99 worked great. My drive does read sub-channel data (TLA# 0202A). This is a great program.

Thanks all
