DVD-RW Drive for Mavericks Hackintosh

[Adrian B]

if you look in the left bottom corner of window your 2 dvd-rw models are seen the same as my lite-on… Burn Support: Unsupported
it seems that they work indipendently from how disk utility recognizes the devices

Have you used your optical drive yet - it should be working just as Going Bald describes. There are many people using the Liteon iHAS124 drive without problems.

All of a sudden, iDVD decided it wanted to burn DVDs after I did a clean install of Mavericks... I did this with my original ASUS DVD-RW drive, not the Sony Optiarc, that one was returned after I discovered it showed the same status as the ASUS drive. I hadn't actually tested it since I was on Mountain Lion, but I am extremely glad that it works, now I can finally stop using the 20-inch Core 2 Duo iMac my family owns, simply to burn my discs! It's a total pain, so I'll be glad to use my hackintosh.
