I just bought a Lite-On 48x12x48 CDRW and put it in a FireWire case, which was originally from a QPS Que! 8x CDRW. Mac OS X doesn't recognize the drive at all. I also had a 32x CDRW in the case a few weeks ago, and it worked fine, so I know it's not the IDE->FW bridge that's causing problems (limiting which drive can be used or anything). Toast 5.2 doesn't recognize it, either. What's going on? Do they have drivers for X?

Reader Comments: Drive installed in a Que-Fire 8x4x32 CDRW case and works flawlessly so far. I replaced the old plextor mechanism with a new lite-on 48x12x48 IDE drive ordered from Dell for $50.00.

recognized by iTunes and Toast 5.2. native Finder support for burning as well.

That's exactly what mine's not doing...same drives...even the same ordering place!

Resetting the PRAM didn't work...hmm
