Is there any reason /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1 show different results here?

Do they have the same (and latest) firmware?
I tend to check using 'dmesg' and searching the output for 'sr0', the line above the first instance of 'sr0' tends to be the correct one with drive info, eg. mine here says:

[ 1.865700] scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM TSSTcorp DVDWBD SH-B123L SB03 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

Which is firmware SB03. I have just checked 5 drives and they all have the firmware version in the same place, so I am assuming it will be there.

I would be tempted to try one drive at a time, and writing an ISO (UDF, etc.) image, possibly using 'wodim'.
