I can not answer this question - I regret buying mine and would suggest you return this item if you can. It was a waste of money for me and I do not recommend that anyone buy this product if they need it for burning. The advertising says it will burn but I also did not find the way to burn it - I even re-installed the program but because this item did not come with instructions I did not find the way to burn a disc.

My apple USB connected DVD/CD player burns disk w/out a problem...go to the makers web site and look for a driver or ask your question.

nope never had an issue. I always burn at 4x which programs are you using. also check another brand dvd and see if it has the same issue if so than its your burner. you can get a usb burner for around 50 bucks I have one and I love it.

I got the Toshiba-branded multidrive from a Radio-shack, and it works, but I'm sure any external burner will do. The only thing to remember is that Windows Explorer won't list the drive unless you stick some media in - even a blank disc.

I had to buy Nero burning program there aren't to many free ones (actually I found none...) but alot of 'trial' versions of a variety of programs. so make sure you want to purchase a program Before buying! I assumed it came with some type of basic program, silly me!! ( they are getting really cheap in my opinion!!) no specific drivers are available that I found. once you buy a program it works great.

Check the light scribe site and make sure the drivers and software are installed properly. I had the same problem but now I'm burning custom discs with awesome templates from their site. Also stick a light scribe DVD in the drive upside down and see if it opens the lights drive automatically.

Well, it worked (for me) on 2 Windows laptops and I was also able to burn a couple of DVD's while connected to an i5 MacMini. And I did not install any software. The laptops used Roxio, the Mac has its built-in program. I hope it works out for you.

The disc doesn't care what system you have, it just stores data. You need a burning program and a burner that will burn the disk... all burners will not work. I would be surprised if the M-disc is the best method to back up a system, though. I have used Acronis software in the pasts with an external hard drive for this purpose.

I'm currently running maverick. I went to the SanDisk site and installed the driver there. It's still working perfectly.

I can't find a disc for it here Sheila. Let me search around for you and see if I can find the software somewhere you can download it and burn it to a disc on your good machine and use the disc to set up the other one.

the cheaper drives dont come with software. Use imgburn for burning data to disk, Windows for playing DVDs, and MakeMKV+VLC for blueray :) or buy a $100+ drive that comes with software.

I do not know, but have read that it can only burn single discs, not a dual layer disc/ I have not attempted any other than 25gb BD discs.

Upon further research, Conexant offers NO end user support, & suggests trying the source. I bought mine from the "Neewer" store at Amazon. Their website was no help either. Like I said, if you can't find your original mini-disk in the box, I'll send you one.

Check your computer's documentation to check if your drive can write to DVDs or if it is just a CD drive or just a DVD reader and not a burner. If it is a burner, check if it can take a -R disc (some drives can only burn +R discs). If you know it's a burner and it can take a -R disc, try another disc, or try different software to burn. Sometimes Roxio gives me issues and different burning software can be better. Good Luck!

Unfortunately non-software that I have can test it and the hardware itself does not seems to be different physically but I will recommend it as it works good for burning at 6x and the time was 16 min as expected for this device class and if an optical go up from 16x then you maybe need SATA3 but currently it seems does not applies [16× 576 Mbit/s 72 MB/s] because SATA 2 3Gb/s is good up to ~ 290MB/s read and write vs. 6Gb/s is good up to ~ 600mb/s read / write.

You can download the driver here: http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=123&sid;=127〈=enApparently this card was also bundled with the WD MyBook 3.0. The linked driver is the one I used, and it works perfectly.
