In our guide above we've selected the ASUS ZenDrive U9M as our favorite pick since its read and write speeds are impressive, and you don't need a dongle to use it with your newer MacBook - like the M2 MacBook Air. After all, watching DVDs on discs means you don't have to rely on streaming services and an internet connection to watch movies. Or maybe you just have an old disc you need to view. Some people like to transfer important documents from their iMac or Macbook to a disc as a back-up. You might want to digitize your DVD collection or all of the music you have on CDs. perhaps ill roll back to 7,6,5 maybe even 4 and see how i make out.An optical disc drive might seem outdated-who uses CDs and DVDs regularly anymore? But there are plenty of reasons why you might still need to use a disc every so often. the version of toast i have installed is version 8. perhaps it is toast itself that caused it in the first place? that almost makes sense. there is obviously some peice of software doing this. I could get by without using the dvd if i could at least run toast. I cant even run toast which is the major problem, because i use it to mount disc images. the cd works 100% fine and never locks up like this. ive never seen it happen on panther, In fact i think on the same machine if i boot into panther. ive only seen this happen on tiger with the powermac g5 + imac g5. if you ask me, I believe it to be some type of software error.
what the **** is going on here? is it the actual dvddrive failing? the cable? because. but if someone could tell me how to fix this nuisance of a problem. i dont want to spend any money on this old rusy bucket of bolts. but then if i want to eject the disc i have to reboot again. when i reboot it seems to work for about 5-10-15 min. The dvd drive always dissappears from the finder. My problem is the same as the original posters. Im on an old PowerMac7,2, 4gb ram, running 10.4.11Ĭomputer works great for what im using it for which is some light recording.
