[QUOTE="chrsb5, post: 1154085, member: 179150"] Something similar happened to my MBP recently. It would read and write CDs just fine, sometimes read DVDs but stopped writing DVDs altogether. After the usual troubleshooting then cleaning the drive with air and a drive cleaner disk I ended up having the drive replaced. Fortunately, my local Apple store replaced the drive free of charge even though the machine was a few weeks out of warranty. If you're comfortable opening up your machine, replacing the drive should be a fairly simple DIY job. [/QUOTE]
