I installed MacOS Catalina for about two months ago.

Everything is working except the DVD Drive.

During every boot, the computer automatically ejects the dvd tray. And after unlocking a window pop's up saying The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer

So I took a look inside the disk utility and it is saying that the drive capacity is 3.31 EB ( I created a post regarding this issue before and during that post time the drive capacity was 51.95 Peta Byte. dont know why but the capacity is sometimes changing)

I tried the DVD drive in windows and it worked correctly and it was working fine in macOS HS and Sierra I didn't have to install any additional drivers or kext for it to work

 

This is how it looks (During this screenshot there was an empty 4.7GB DVD inserted

After ejecting the dvd the size changed

Does anyone know what's happening?

Would this affect my HDD and SSD in some way?
