Closing Track Failed! - Reason: The device is not connected.

[birdman42]

Hi, 

So I am using a Sony Optiarc 5280s and have gotten some burns from it, and they work fine, but most of the time the device will be "removed" at the closing track section. Obviously I'm not unplugging the drive but when ever it reaches that point it refuses to connect with the drive. Been searching the interwebs but cant find anyone with the same problem. Please help the coasters are pilling up. Im using verbatim disks with default settings and just bought a new usb to sata cable.

Something is going on with the communication between the drive and the port connected.

 

This error is usualy a problem with the USB adapter/controller or could be a faulty cable.

 

Try other ports available or another cable/adapter.

I just recently bought a new cable because someone else suggested this as the problem. However it is one of the cheaper ones on  eBay ($3), is It not high enough quality for reliable burns.

 

What would you recommend?

I assume using it internally is out of the question? I.e. You're using it with a laptop? What about sata / esata? Your USB controller/adapter is timing out prematurely and the drive is being disconnected.
