Whay are optical drives so sensitive?
| CD and DVD Writers Discuss, Whay are optical drives so sensitive? at Computer Hardware forum; I have never come across a drive that works properly. They all make funny noises and dont spin properly. Sometimes locking up the rest of the computer. Sure they work good sometimes but more often than not they don't. We need a new method of storage. Optical is just too |

| I have never had any problems with retail CD/DVD in a standalone DVD/CD player. What is it about recordable optical media and writers?

| Possibly your Power Supply, as locking up when using a CD/DVD writer can happen if you have too much in your computer and your PSU cant handle it. What make is your PSU and what wattage? |
