DVD will not read then disappears from my computer and device manager

Hi I have tried many things and I still have a problem

Dell XPS 8910

Hitachi HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GU90N

I can see the drive letter E of my DVD

But when I open the tray and put in another CD-R it just disappears from My PC and device manager

Very odd ?
