This is a weird one: burning CDs and DVDs in my Ultra 20 is a crapshoot. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. The Ultra 20 is using the DVD-RW drive that Sun shipped with it, and I'm using the latest BIOS and b42a of Nevada. The media I'm trying to burn is brand new Maxell branded DVD-Rs and CD-Rs, and they all seem to be in excellent physical condition.
I had the same problem -- cdrecord reported that the drive was returning a servo motor failure error.. I replaced the drive and the problem is gone. Your problem may be different but you'll find cdrecord will tell you why it failed whereas cdrw just sticks its tongue out at you after eating a perfectly good blank disc. ;)
