Would this be good?: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-SE-S084F-External-Slimline-Writer/dp/B0041XKCN2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1314818684&sr=8-2

Know any drives that will take any disc? Even Aone?

I've done everything on the list apart from getting another drive! What I don't get is that it worked like the 3rd time..

Oh okay, so how do I fix this? Please help

Yeah I've read it but surely the majority of discs should work? I've burnt 10 and only 1 works, where as before, it would be the other way around. Surely there's a way around it or is it just a faulty disc? Cos it's a bit weird it gives me the error on the EXACT section and percentage..

Hey guys, I know there are tons of these topics but mine is being really weird. Basically, I have burnt about 10 of the same discs at all different speeds, even my driver speeds but I get the exact same error 50% of the verify. But what is strange is that once, it did work, so I assumed they were just faulty discs but it won't stop doing it. Here is the log where it worked and below a log of the error: Successful: I 14:01:37 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started!
