Now that I can actually read the disks that I produced in the computer I
produced them in, I am perhaps running into that.

The two disks that were produced at the higher rate of speed can now be
read. The one I produced at the slower rate can not be read, and acts
like a blank.

Toast, thankfully, has a test burn speed feature to test the rate, if you
are not familiar with the maximum rate that the burner can run without
underrunning the buffer.

Considering the extensive discussion in the book about noise on the SCSI
cables and that it might lead to multiple retries, I also thought the
slower speed would produce a just as good if not better disk. That isn't
what happened in my case!
