Does anyone know how to get the Optiarc DVD RW AD-7580S Drive working?

I have iAtkos S3 V2 updated to 10.6.4 and everything seems to work fine (with a bit of tweaking) but the drive is recognised Interconnect:ATAPI With Burn Support: Yes (Generic Drive Support)

It will eject and close from the desktop but will not read discs.

Thanks

 

Also it shows up in Serial-ATA Device tree but still no go?

Thought I would do a follow up for people having a similar problem. Through lots of searching found out it seems to be related to the hard drive sleep option. As my drive is on a sata connection the sleep selecter seems to put the drive to sleep. Putting a disc in and ejecting and closing it from the desktop icon doesnt seem to effect it. But if I go to disk utility and choose eject from there it suddenly comes to life. Problem solved. Hope this helps someone else out there.

 

Now just waiting for my new wireless card to come through to get the last problem solved ;)
