Troubleshooting
Is the drive’s SCSI ID number the same as that of another device on the SCSI
chain? (→P. 10)
Are the pins and holes on the SCSI connectors straight and not deformed?
Check the connectors.
Is the terminator on the CRW8824S drive set correctly?
It should be set to ON only if it is the last device on the SCSI chain. Otherwise,
it should be set to OFF. (→P. 11)
Is the termination on the SCSI card set such that internal SCSI devices can be
connected?
Please read the instructions that came with your SCSI card for details.
To write to CD-R/RW discs, your CD writing software must support the
CRW8824S drive.
To find out if it does, contact the manufacturer of your CD writing software.
The disc tray does not come out.
Is the CRW8824S drive powered up?
Some CD writing applications will lock the disc tray once loaded.
In which case, use the eject command from within the application. Alterna-
tively, read the manual that came with the application.
The disc keeps being ejected.
Has the disc been placed on the disc tray correctly?
The drive does not operate correctly.
Is the disc compatible with the CRW8824S drive?

discs can still be unreadable on it.
Is there dust on the disc tray or on the disc itself?
Is the terminator of the last device on the SCSI chain set to “ON?” Or if it has
no built-in termination, has a terminator been attached?
Does the computer have a sufficient power supply?
The CRW8824S has a power consumption of 11W (when reading and writing).
Does your computer have several different CD writing applications installed?
If you use more than one CD writing application simultaneously, the behavior
of the drive can become unpredictable.
