Depends on how the drive is mounted; the "Burning side/ Image side" must face the optical reader generally down (always at the bottom of the tray so if it is sideways look for that)

The other option to consider is weather the disk is dual sided in which case it depends on which side you want to read/ write to.

Hope that helps!

The shiny side is always facing down.
