I also had much troubles with my brand new Plextor. Then I upgraded to
a 2.6.20x kernel, switched to a SATA model and stopped using the
apparently poor PATA drivers, using the new SCSI - SATA drivers in the
new kernel, and switched media to Verbatim. Ever since, I've had
complete success. Before that, every DL was a coaster, and that gets
costly to test out. Go SATA and your life will become less stressful.
