Hi Natedogg26,
Media is more than likely the problem as John stated, however Dell does has a firmware update for the drive. You must use a Dell validated firmware in oreder to maintain the warranty on the drive. click the Products Tab above, then Downloads.
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.

natedogg26;
Usually a power calibration error indicates bad media. Try burning at a slower speed with that media. The next time you buy media, I recommend Sony, Maxell or TDK.
