Hello,

 

I use Optiarc DVD RW AD-7240S on Snow leopard 10.6.2. System profiler says the system supports to burn with this drive. I can burn something through Finder. I can burn musics with iTunes.

 

But, Disk utility says there is no burning support for the drive... I can't erase CD-RW with Disk utility...

Is there any way to solve this problem?

 

My machine:

CPU: Intel core i7 860

MB: Gygabyte GA-P55A-UD4

GPU: ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB

Memory: 2GBx2

 

Thanks!

I also have the same problem

Couple of questions. Will the Optiarc drive work in windows? I assuming that you were able to load snow leo but the burning side does not work. I would test it with windows to see if it burns. Do you have another burner by any chance and swap that one to see if it also fails.

I think that the problem might be because the burn support is "generic"...

 

I have an IDE CD-RW drive that is listed as " Burn Support: Yes (Apple Supported Drive) " and it burns from Disk Utility.

 

I am in the process of trying out several DVD/CRDW drives to find one that works naitively.

I have been having this problem with a Samsung sata burner. After a while I gave up up disk utility and found that I could burn from the command line:

 

hdiutil burn <file.iso>

I have been having this problem with a Samsung sata burner.

 

Which model # please, so I can rule that one out, in my quest for a supported drive .

 

Apple only switched to SATA super drives recently, but they should work under 10.6 - right? Maybe the bigger issue is SATA vs. IDE???

SAMSUNG SH-S223B. I tried upgrading its firmware in Windows and it still won't work in with Disk Utility, but like I said, it works fine if you use hdiutil.

 

I think the issue with disk utility is that it seems to be pickier then hdiutil. Here is what the disk recording log shows for disk utility and for hdiutil.

 

Disk Utility: Burn started, Sat Feb 6 01:19:11 2010

Disk Utility: Burning to DVD+RW (INFODISC A10) media with DAO strategy in TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223B SB02 with generic profile via ATAPI.

Disk Utility: Requested burn speed was 47x, actual burn speed is 4x.

Disk Utility: Burn failed, Sat Feb 6 01:19:21 2010

Disk Utility: Burn sense: 2/04/08 Not Ready, Logical unit not ready, long write in progress

Disk Utility: Burn error: 0x80020022 The disc drive didn’t respond properly and can’t recover or re

 

So the drive tries to start burning at it's fastest rate and disk utility says "BAD Drive" and terminates the session before the drive starts to burn.

 

hdiutil: Burn started, Sat Feb 6 03:03:42 2010

hdiutil: Burning to DVD+RW (INFODISC A10) media with DAO strategy in TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223B SB02 with generic profile via ATAPI.

hdiutil: Requested burn speed was 47x, actual burn speed is 4x.

hdiutil: Burn finished, Sat Feb 6 03:06:14 2010

hdiutil: Verify started, Sat Feb 6 03:06:14 2010

hdiutil: Verify finished, Sat Feb 6 03:07:48 2010

 

Here, the drive tries to burn at 47x and hdiutil lets it continue trying and less then 3 minutes later my iso is burned.

SAMSUNG SH-S223B. I tried upgrading its firmware in Windows and it still won't work in with Disk Utility, but like I said, it works fine if you use hdiutil.

 

SMC13,

 

If my research is correct, the SH-S223 is a SATA drive. If I am correct, it would appear that this is the same drive ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16827151192 ). But you stated that is is not Apple supported. Hmmm...

 

At Other World Computing, they have a SAMSUNG ( http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Samsung/S223QBEBSL/ ), which I think is this model (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151188 ), and they state that under 10.4.3 and above, it is naitively supported. They do note that " Dual layer DVD burning is supported using the following software (Separate Purchase Required)

  • Roxio Toast Titanium, and that software is not included with this drive. It is available as a separate purchase here.
  • NTI DragonBurn 4.0 OEM or Retail - OEM available as a separate purchase here."

 

On SAMSUNG's web site ( http://www.samsung.com/us/business/semicon...HalfHeight.html ), they only list 2 current SATA models - SH-S223B and SH-S223L.

 

Is there that much difference between the SH-S223 line? Do all the suffixes ( QBEBSL, etc. ) just denote packaging and bundled software?

 

I'm not burning DVD's, just CD's, but just want it to work like a Mac should. :happymac:

 

If you don't mind, what does your drive say under system profiler - disk burning - burn support?

 

Thanks!
