USB DVD drive access failures

[Paolo Galtieri]

I have been trying to rip some music CDs and it has been very frustrating.
I get repeated failures using both the internal SATA DVD drive as well as an
external USB drive.  The errors below are fro the USB drive.

When trying it using grip it will start fine on track 1, but by track 3 it
will hang and I get the following errors:

Sometimes if I eject the CD and try it again it works sometimes I have to
reboot my system to get the DVD drive to work at all.
Sometimes I have to power cycle the system before the internal drive is
accessible again.

These are the errors I get for the internal DVD drive:

Based on my experience so far it appears that using an external USB drive
works better than using the internal.

Has anybody else seen issues with accessing/ripping CDs?

Thanks
Paolo
