Ive had heaps of CD's not burn since ive upgraded to Snow leopard only 10.0.2 & 10.0.4 seemed to have worked any good this is the error code that comes up:

 

The drive reported an error:

Sense Key = MEDIUM ERROR

I've seen at least one other topic on this issue. Try burning at the slowest possible speed to see if that makes a difference.

An excellent idea. I always burn at one half or less than whatever the maximum speed is for the media. Typically, audio at 8x, dvd at 4x, bd at 2x.

If you can try another burner. I have 4 burners on my Mac Pro, (2 are external cd burners) and have had no cd burning problems with any version of Toast 10. I use Verbatim for data and Ritek Ridata Pro for audio.

 

Among the things I have seen cause this problem: dust in the burner, bad run of cd's, power line glitches (I cured that with putting the computer and burner on a UPS). Also try a different brand of cd.
