It's a SATA drive. See my first mail for details. It's connected to my onboard VIA VT6420 SATA controller. It has 2 ports which can also be used for harddisk raid. > Could you please run (in a typescript): > > cdrecord -v -V some_file > > and send the last ~ 100 lines of messages? http://www.metamorpher.de/files/cdrecord.typescript.txt The file seems to include some noise, since there is also a SCSI DVD drive (real SCSI, not SATA, very old drive). > Linux sometimes bastardizes the SCSI command content for SCSI > commands send over ATAPI.

Installing it on this machine will probably not be easy with the current harddisk / partition layout. Is there a Live CD with SATA support and cdrecord?
