DVD Writer scratching discs

[Stephen Coates]

If the scratch is just a line in the direction of the tray, I would assume there is something touching it when it is ejecting.

Do make sure you have a look underneath teh tray to see if there is anything that isn;t in the right place.

[Harrison]

That was the first thing I did but there is nothing unusual or out of place. And even stranger is that the last few discs I burnt using the drive don't have any scratches on them! very odd.

I did work out the drive must have burnt a 2000+ DVDs so far so it is doing well.
