unable to WRITE@LBA=5e4f0h: Input/output error

I'm on MX Linux KDE and i'm trying to burn a DVD-R with a custom Windows XP x64 image using my External Buffalo BRXL-16U3 Bluray Burner and K3B.
The result is the following error during burning:

Code: Select all

unable to WRITE@LBA=5e4f0h: Input/output error
When i burn the same image with my Liteon DVD Burner it works perfectly. (Everything else equal including the Empty DVD-R Disc Batch)

So i thought my Buffalo BRXL-16U3 is worn out and replaced it with a different one (not the same type). SAME ERROR down to the same 5e4f0h.
This happens during the failed burn which i think is interesting by the way...

Code: Select all

michael@supermicro.285k:~
$ sudo dmesg -w
[5395885.998227] usb 7-11.3.2: reset high-speed USB device number 26 using xhci_hcd
So all 3 burners are connected to the PC through the same Exsys USB Hub. For both Bluray burners i used the same PSU and USB Cable. (I only swapped the Burner Unit itself)

I'm currently thinking it might be a bad PSU or USB Cable and ordered replacements already.
Also i could try eliminating the Exsys USB Hub despite the liteon burner (which burned the ISO sucessfully) is also connected through the same Hub.

So apart from these 3 things, could there be anything else wrong?
Is this maybe a known problem / not a hardware problem?

You should ask it from KDE user forums. This is MakeMKV forum.
