Hi Cats,
A few things to try; Click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 12, article 3 from Dell-Stephen on testing the drive.
Next, Section 11, article 2 ~ Dell`s Clearing the NVRAM.
Finally, click on the "Downloads" tab above, enter information for your system and follow the links, I believe Dell has a firmware update for this drive that addresses some read issues.
Best Regards
God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
difference.

Hi Cat,
You paid for the "Dell Support" consider giving them a call, no e-mail, and have Dell walk you through their trouble shooting steps.
