I/O Error!

Hi

I'm currently in the process of backing up some files, and I've run into a bit of a problem:

 

And the log:

Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be and how I can solve this?

Your drive is too old and doesn't support the media you've got.

 

A newer firmware may help... but no promises.

Bummer, you seem to be right, my drive is too old. I tried to flash its firmware, and that did not help. Now I'm burning the files on an older DVD-RW disk just to see if it works, and it does. Guess it is time for an upgrade.

Thanks for the help.
