If the Mac drive is HFS standard and smaller capacity than a CD-R, Nero Burning 
ROM can burn direct from the drive to CD-R.

If a drive "reads" slowly, generally it's a disk-surface issue. I had an old 
Sony 20MB drive in the 90s that I had to take the top off of, manually 
spin-to-start, and keep a desk fan on for the purpose of copying all those 
precious one-of-a-kind files to another hard drive. 

Here's a radical idea:

Put an Adaptec PCI SCSI card into an older PC (Pentium III/4) and boot an .iso 
burned to a blank CD of MHDD disk surface utility on that drive. In colored 
sectors, by speed, it will tell you what shape the surface of that Rodime is 
really in, without erasing or altering the content. 

The burn progam of choice for that old PC? burnatonce. all one name, no spaces.
