Probably the only difference between SL110 and SL111 is that something on SL111 is trying to access sectors near the end of the media during mount. The -t auto triggering the problem is indicative of this too. The bottom line is that some sectors on those media are inaccessible and whether SL111 triggers it or not isn't very relevant as long as what SL111 does is legit (ie. drive struggling for inaccessible media isn't a bug). If most of the media you have are showing the same problem (note that the problem did exist on SL103, it just wasn't visible because nobody was reading the affected area), it's more likely that the burning process is somehow botched but then again this doesn't really explain why the NEC one is happy with those media. The closest thing I can think of other than hardware problem is the padding problem I mentioned earlier and it could be that NEC firmware handles it differently. Can you please do the followings? 1. Select a few different media burned at different times. 2. Record "cat /sys/block/sr0/size" for each media on SL103 and SL110. It would be better to turn off automount on SL110. 3. do "dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/null bs=2048 iflags=direct" and record the kernel error messages for IO errors. You can play with skip= parameter if you wanna skip over the earlier part of the media.
