It is, I've got such a drive too. It's an AOpen 20x10x40 drive, which used to work with cdrecord (albeit not at higher speeds than 4x) but now gives the same "no error" messages you're getting. I put it in a Windows box where it worked fine with Nero. Perhaps these drives have automatic OS detection and break when they detect Linux?
