Hello,
Your drive is dying...
I know it is late to answer, but in case it helps you... I started to experiment the
same problem as yours, also with a Philips SCSI CD-RW 3600 model.
For two years it worked well, then started to be only able to write CDRW and
no more CDR failing with the same fixating error. I fixed many times the drive's
hardware (open it, clean, grease, etc...) but the fix only works for
a little time (6 month, then 3, then 1, then a few days, then not at all).
I ended being able to open the computer, remove the drive, open the drive in
less than 5 minutes :-/
I buy a new drive (Yamaha CRW2200SX) and without any software change,
all writings are now perfects.
My diagnostic of the root cause of the problem is the way PCs are designed,
all the air cooling the power supply comming through the CDRW drive and thus
adding dust in the mechanism of the drive. I now have an external drive without
any fan, and I only turn it on when I need to write, reducing the dust and on/off
related problems.
Regards,
JLS
