actually, i have already got it working now with help from another member of the list. You are correct though, my drives are using ATA instead of SCSI.

Try running "cdrecord -scanbus" and it will tell you what the device number is (something like 0,0,0 or 1,0,0). Then you would probably want to do something like: mkisofs -r /directory_path | cdrecord -v --eject driveropts=burnfree dev=1,0,0 - --- OR --- I think your drive uses ATA instead of SCSI, so you would change the dev argument like this: mkisofs -r /directory_path | cdrecord -v --eject driveropts=burnfree dev=ATA:1,0,0 -
