If this was OS 9 I would allocate more RAM to the program. Might you consider running classic and using an appropriate application after setting more RAM in the "Get Info" panel?

Have you tried slower write speeds?
Yes. No diff.
Other brand disks?
Yes. TDK, Maxell, and Office Despot. No diff. Same results with +RW, +R, and -RW.
