Does anyone have a method to discover what the CD-ROM read offset for my drive is? I know there are databases on-line with thousands of drives listed, but I don't even know what model drive I'm using, other than it's a DVD-RW of some sort.

I need to know for cd ripping with ruby ripper. Before anyone replies to tell me it's not that important, It is that important (to me)!
