What SCSI-controller do you have? NCR used (?) to have problems with
connect/
disconnect.
What ROM revision do you have. My CDD2000 came with version 1.24 which
had some bugs, you can get at <htt://www.philips.com> a new Flash-rom.
You need a DOS/Windows based ASPI driver for the upgrade.

xcdroast uses cdwrite, so it would be strange if they didn't have the
same problem.

I don't have any problems with it though. But maybe my hints help.
