Ok, Jon, the model is the Mitsumi CR48X8TE.
Really? Please forgive me, but would you mind posting the output of `cdrecord -scanbus' and `dmesg | grep hd`?
It is a 16x8x40 drive and seems like a very good drive.
From my own experience, I'm inclined to agree. I've never had a problem with a Mitsumi anything; they've always outlived their warranty periods, which is really all you can ask of modern hardware. :) The only exception was that when I bought my CD-R, cdrecord wasn't *quite* ready for show yet, but it worked with the next SuSE release (back in the 5.x days). ;)
Don't know if my CDRs are top quality or not,
My first suspect...
Ok, here you go Jon, the dmesg thingy!
dmesg | grep hd Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=303 BOOT_FILE=/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_FILE=/boot/vmlinuz hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi ide_setup: hdc=ide-scsi ide_setup: hdd=ide-scsi ide0: BM-DMA at 0xff00-0xff07, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA ide1: BM-DMA at 0xff08-0xff0f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA hda: FUJITSU MPE3136AT, ATA DISK drive hdc: CR-48X8TE, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdd: Memorex CRW-1622, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hda: 26688576 sectors (13665 MB) w/512KiB Cache, CHS=1661/255/63, UDMA(33) hda: hda1 hda2 hda3
