I had such problems with few DVD drives (some of them where burners and some only ROM).
The problem I found out in two of them was that the version of the firmware had bugs that required upgrading to a newer version. Another problem I found on few other drives where that they came to the end of their life. btw even burning DVD's too fast can have problems. x8 does not always works right on some DVD burners (and I saw DVD that offers even faster burning).
