Q: Burning 700MB CD-R 's from iMac

My 27 inch iMac Superdrive won't burn 700MB CD-R's. I get a message saying "the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media".

Is this a fault with the drive, the firmware etc.? Or do I need to try a different CD format?

 

I hear that CDs are superior to DVDs for archiving data as less compression and more stable.
