    When I look at the output I see that your Sony will write cds . When
I  look at your Matshita I don't 
 see write capabilities BUT I've never seen "DVD-RAM" before. If I run
"cdrecord  -scanbus" my HP will
be described as HP dvd-writer. As an end-user, who hasn't used the
command line to write cds since
 Redhat 9  I'd suggest that you try k3b or xcdroast - also verify
whether or not the Matshita is indeed a writer.
 So far, I'm a fan of HP DVDwriters.       --gary
