Can anyone provide a strategy for determining whether it is 1) the
burner, 2) the reading drive, or 3) the CD-medium itself which fails
periodically.
I burn my own CDs in ONE drive, then TESTS them through another, but
from time to time further readings through the TESTING drive will
fail.
So far, though, I have been able to read these through the BURN
drive.
Whether drives nor media are any particularly high quality, I believe.

Name the drives concerned. Certain brands of CD writer e.g. BTC perform
very poorly on some types of media, notably CDRW disc.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> |

Odds are the no-name reading drive is junk. Assuming the absence of any
other issue, the burner and the media are both of high quality. You could
try a firmware flash for the reading drive if you can find one; otherwise,
you may need to buy another one.
