It should be working as it is. Besides, I don't think you'll get the
bezel to fit.

I just tried a CD in mine. I get the same warning. I hadn't noticed it
before, probably because I usually use Xcdroast. I haven't had any
problems and I just burned and verified a disk using your same command
line.

I suspect that this warning is coming about because this drive isn't in
cdrecord's database, so it's response when queried is unrecognized
causing the program to use a generic instruction set. Seems to work
fine though.

One thing I've noticed, DAO (Disk at Once) doesn't seem to work on this
drive.
