Here is a wierd one - at least to me, After I burn a CD-RW disk, I can read it fine i nthe internal CD Drive, but not in the new QUE drive (where it was just "burnt")! The QUEW drive can mount and read CD-R and CD-ROM disks, but when I put the CD-RW disk in and try to mount it or get info, it doesn't think there is a disk in the drive!

Some particulars - iMAC DV/SE running OS8.6 wiht Firewire drivers 2.3.3, QUE Firewire 8x4x32x drive, Memorex CD-RW Platinum disks, Toast 4.1 OEM Software.

Burning CD-R disks works fine, and the data burned to a CD-RW seems fine when read with the internal disk.

Anybody see this before? Any help?

Thanks...

Mine reads them fine.

I'm on a g4/400 - OS9.04 - firewire 2.4 - toast4.1 deluxe

I know that's not much help

Update to FW 2.4 from http://asu.info.apple.com, and try mounting the disk from within Toast, by hitting Command-M (or going "Mount CD-ROM" in the menu).

I have read some bad reviews of Memorex CD media. You might want to try a different brand of CD-RW discs and see if the problem still exists.

Thanks for the tips. Well, I tried the CD-RW Disc that came with the drive (unknown brand) and it seems to work fine... So far!

Amazingly enough, I put one of the Memorex discs back in the drive and it mounted. Trying another, no dice...

For fun, I even tried my Memorex discs in my PC and they read fine.

I downloaded Firewire 2.4.4, but havn't tried it yet since it says it is compatible with OS9, and I'm running 8.6.

Thanks for your help...

The best media are Verbatim DataLife Plus.
