What a "killer" combination you have there.

Matshita are famous for their bad burners in combination with the cheap/worst media known.

Try all supported speeds, start with 4x up as you ruled out 2,4x

You can try cleaning the lens with a cleaning disc or manual if you know how to do it.

Use high quality discs. Verbatin and Tayio Yuden are recommended.

These discs used to work fine with this burner, but i will try another make as have tried 10 of these and they all fail straight away
