I've had a Mitsumi CDRW USB drive packaged as a Pacific Digital 4x4x8 drive for some time now. It burns fine under OS 9.X, but not at all under OS X. Not under ANY version of OSX, from 10.0.1 to 10.2.4.
The X side does see the drive, and attempts to burn CDs, but always stops with some "Can't determine disk size" error (refering to the CD blank). This happens whether I use iTunes, Toast, or DiskCopy, latest versions all.
The only thing I can figure out is there is no X driver for this CDRW burner, at least none that I can find. Is there a driver out there that I don't know about? Has somebody written something like the CUPS print drivers for X for USB CD burners?
EDIT: or would I be better off just buying a Firewire drive kit and moving the CD burner in there?
My Mac-Rev A. Blue and White G3 with G4 CPU upgrade, 640 MB ram, 40 GB HDD.
