NS_E_CD_READ_ERROR_NO_CORRECTION

A CD sector could not be read in the no-correction mode

NS_E_CD_READ_ERROR_NO_CORRECTION (0xC00D0FAB) is a read-path result that specifically notes error correction is disabled. It is more informative than a generic media read failure because the selected recovery policy matters.

Preserve the failing location

Record drive, track/sector, read mode, correction setting, and first device/I/O status. Retry the same area with a known-good disc to separate media damage from drive instability.

Controlled comparison

If supported, test the same disc with correction enabled. A successful corrected read points toward recoverable media errors; persistent failures still require drive/media diagnosis rather than changes to the rip destination.
