Re: Pismo/External DVD

[Frank Cornew]

I purchased a LaCie 52xCD burner some years ago. Music CDs tend to be 
skip prone even with the finest media and slowest burn speed when 
compared to commercial CDs in my car player. Used all applicable 
drive cleaners and compressed air. Bumps in the road, bass peaks, etc 
make the disks skip. The problem does seem to be lesser at the slower 
speeds and finer quality media.

LaCie indicated that there was no problem with the drive when it was 
new, and refused warranty service. I am located in Mexico so I have 
put up with it.

Data disks seem to be reliable. The guts are a LiteOn mechanism that 
appears to be quite common. I have no other burner to compare to. Is 
this normal? Any suggestions?

Interesting. What kind of problems have you had with it?
