I use Toast 3.55 with a G3 and have found the program and the drive (a Philips CDD2600 mechanism) to be finicky. The combination tends not to like other SCSI devices on the chain, particularly scanners. It's also finicky concerning termination -- if you have passive terminators, you might consider eliminating those and trying active termination.
