I just checked their website and their program (which I guess now is Opti Drive Control) doesn't support my drive.  DVDInfoPro, Kprobe and Plextools all seem to be drive specific as well so if anyone has suggestions outside these four I'd really appreciate hearing them.  Preferably I'd like something that has both PI/PIF and C1/C2 testing capabilities but PI/PIF are priority.  My burner is a Memorex 16x DDL-IN.  Here's a link on myce showing a test review done on the burner:

(It's funny seeing the difference in performance between TaiyoYuden/Verbatim media and everything else)

I was told it's a good idea to use a benchmark (disc transfer speed) and disc quality test after burns.  From my basic understanding Parity Inner Errors/Failures are physical defects left on the disc from the burn process and a smooth curve in the speed graph and low PI/PIF's indicate a quality burn.  That's actually the same test they use in the link I posted above and I've seen it referenced in several different forums so I figured it was standard.  

I saw another test review where they also include the POE (Parity Outer Error) but I don't know much about this stuff or the relevance of POE's to what I'm looking for, I just know that if you get a Parity Outer Failure your disc won't read.


PS- Thanks for helping me out with my questions


*Update
Found the old Nero CD-DVD Speed for download and works perfectly.
