I've had no trouble with my HP in two years. I have burnt exactly one
coaster, just last week, and the reason for that is my DSL dropped while
burning; when my DSL drops, it freezes the entire system (the mouse
pointer can't even be moved) for several seconds. I can't blame this on
the CDRW.
Oh, I also had a series of failures using no-name CDRW blanks. As long as
I stick to CDR or name-brand CDRW blanks, I've been fine.
I will note that I've had a lot of hassles with the Adaptec software that
came with the drive, and with the commercial version I foolishly shelled
out bucks for, hoping for better results. I've since migrated to Nero,
which has had flawless performance.
