Are these write protected (DRM) disks? Games, music, etc., many of which have 
copy protection "built in." The error messages look familiar somehow. 

If they aren't DRM disks what fs was written to them? Are they VFAT (Windows 
32 bit format) or something else? If they're disks that were recorded not 
pressed at a factory; who did it, what software was used to do it, and can 
you actually *read the disks* when not trying to copy them?

Since you can't write at those speeds at present anyway (can you copy the 
disks at a lower speed?) you may as well try enabling DMA to see if it makes 
a difference. If your drives actually support it. The worst that could happen 
is probably a coaster.
