Without knowing the media manufacturer, it is hard to tell
what might have been wrong.
GIGABYTE is a mainboard manufacturer and the drives they make
are partially produced under license and partially self made.
This is what I have been told from the company at a CeBIT visit.
Anyway, you have a drive that is most likely produced in camparable
low volumes.
If a drive does not like a medium, cdrecord usually prints error messages that
allow to make conclusions on the problem. You therefore should kill hald and
retry and report the output from cdrecord -v -minfo
