BTC ewww. returned mine after it didn't burn anything above 2x. Did you try installing the latest firmware?

Yep, latest firmware. The drive works flawlessly otherwise, not a single coaster. Just won't burn at 8x! :|

My BTC 1004 burns every cheap 4x disc I've thrown at it so far, I don't know why people rip on them so hard. It burns Fry's GQ + & - @ 4x.
