Hi, I’m trying to encrypt a DVD-RAM before putting some files onto it on my OpenBSD 6.5 desktop. But neither dd nor disklabel seems able to work on the drive.

The same drive can be formatted and used on Mac OS X. Thanks and best regards, Siegfried
Did you try 2K blocks? The low level of CDROM only works that way.
