Unfortunately, this drive seems to not work with CDBXP. We have decided to use 'CD Burner XP' as it is full featured, fits our needs, and works perfectly with other drives. We need to move this around quite a bit and thus we need to install burning software on multiple computers. 'We recently purchased a LACie d2 DVD+/-RW with Lightscribe (TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S203N) to burn DVDs. I just sent this into LACie tech support. On a positive note, LaCie desktop and mobile hard drives have served me well for years. The LaCie d2 works fine as a CD reader/burner (I'm using it to custom load Windows XP Home on an Acer netbook as I type this), but for DVD burning I recommend avoiding the d2. Other owners of this drive do not appear to be successful in getting firmware for this drive either.

The firmware in my drive is LA00 (really old even though I just bought this drive new from Buy.com about a month ago) the SB02 firmware from Samsung's site would not work as the LA00 firmware and LA OEM code in the drive's firmware appear foreign to the updater-the update will not install. Firmware updates, in my travels, are nonexistent or failed to work. There are numerous inquires on the net regarding DVD burning issues with this drive. To follow up on my earlier post regarding the LaCie d2 USB DVD burner, after several hours of analysis I have concluded the problem lies with the drive itself (I suspected this from the start as CDBurnerXP works fine with my other drives).
