I agree with Joe.  This question has come up on Genie beefore and it 
was mentioned that the DD and HD hardware in the disk drives put out
different signal strengths when recording on magnetic media.  Therefore
it's possible that too strong a signal or too weak a signal is used when
writing data back to the disk.
