Hi all, as a lot of you I have the disgrace to buy an 8438E creative 
cd writer, I couldn't copy my original CD's to backups because of the 
copy protection, and after asking a bunch of cd-burning software
developing companies, I have this response.


RAW-DAO 96 = 
2352 bytes RAW Data + 96 Bytes P-W Subchannel Data.
This is the best mode for CloneCD. It allows writing
of all 
subchannel information, including Digital
Signatures, CD-Text, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, CD+G,
CD+Midi, Gaps, Indices and 
Crazy TOCs. 

RAW-DAO 94
 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 94 Bytes P-W Subchannel
Data. Same as RAW-DAO 96, but 2-Bytes CRC of the Q
Subchannel are 
generated by the writer. 

RAW-DAO 16 = 
2352 bytes RAW Data + 16 Bytes P-Q Subchannel Data.
This is the second best mode for CloneCD. It allows
writing of most 
subchannel information, including most Digital
Signatures, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, Gaps, Indices and
Crazy TOCs. 2-Bytes 
CRC of the Q Subchannel are generated by the writer.

RAW-SAO = 
2352 bytes RAW Data. This is the third best mode for
CloneCD. Feature support is drive dependant. ISRC,
Catalog Numbers 
and Indices can be written. Usually CD-Text, CD+G
and CD+MIDI can be written as well. Crazy TOCs and
Digital Signatures 
can't be written in this mode. 

SAO = 
2352 bytes error corrected Data. This is the worst
mode for CloneCD. Writing of ISRC, Catalog Numbers,
Indices and 
usually CD-Text is supported.


this is record modes and what you loose with this... so
with my creative I can only write with P-Q DAO RAW-16
(I guess) and the only program that writes that correctly
is blindwrite. if you see in the webpage of blindwrite.com it is 
the writer tested (the one with FC03 firmware.) 


hope this helps somebody...
