You can also check your IDE Cables if they are 40 wire IDE Cables you can replace them with 80 wire IDE Cables this will help the transfer rate
I have a SATA DVD BURN SAMSUNG|SH-S203B, so there is no IDE cable

I can't find anywhere in device manager where you can change the DMA settings for this drive. In DVD FAB 'Check for DMA automatically' is enabled.

My PC is an Intel quad core Q6600 @ 2.4 GHz, so cpu isn't an issue.
