Issue a "SHOW DEVICE" at the dead sargent and post the output.



Well...this could explain a bit: I was burning at 24x and throwing those
discs at a 12x drive.

:rolleyes:

That generally has no correlation whatsoever.   What's important is whether
or not the CD-rom can read the recordable media you're using.   Some record-
able media works better than other in older CD-rom drives.

Hey, I haven't touched CD-ROM stuff in awhile! ;)


BTW, the drive you have installed, is it jumpered for 512 byte blocks???



I'm not even seeing a jumper for it on the drive.   Drive is a crippled Apple CR-507-C (Hey!   It's the only working SCSI CD-ROM drive I have!)
