I'm using a firewire LaCie d2 DVD±R external drive and LaCie Lightscribe Labelling Software with a Macbook.  Lately I've been getting random burn failures that look like this...

I've reinstalled all of the Lightscribe software but to no avail.  Any suggestions?

Hi jeffcdo  !

I'm not positive, but it looks like you may be having a problem with your drive.

It could be either the position detection or the actual laser diode.

I personally think it's more probably the positioner in the detection circuit.

Hope that's not too technical, but I'd recommend getting the drive checked out.
