XPS 8920 BD-RE issue

Has anyone used the Dell SupportAssist program to test their BD-RE (HL-DT-ST BD-RE BU40N)  in an XPS 8920 Desktop?  I had to replace the drive recently and was running the diagnostics.  The program fails the four DVD media tests, but I have no problem playing DVDs.  The drive passes all the other drive tests for which I had discs.  The drive also passes the hardware test accessed by the F12 key.  Dell tech had no explanation.  Thanks.

bob2kids,

When running the diagnostics on the CD/DVD drive you will need to have a disk in the drive in order for the diagnostics can perform the test.

Insert a blank DVD-R media into the drive and test again.
