My Toast, as it concerns the OWC External Firewire DVD burner (
OWCMRF82SD24S)
is really driving me nuts. While the OSX 10.8 recognizes the drive, mounts the DVD on the desktop, Toast will not recognize the device as an option to burn a DVD more times NOT than WILL. Reboots, resetting PRAM, SMC...nothing really helps. There are times it will recognize the DVD with the SAME devices attached in the SAME chain order and then it will not appear in TOAST, but will it the Apple system. I have rearranged the FW device within the chain, I have tried the burner by itself and the hit and miss continues. Often, after recognizing the drive and doing a DVD burn, it will not recognize the device for the next burn. I also tested the same device using the USB interface and same issue.
I am wondering if anyone else is having issues with FW burners and if you have found any resolution.
