The other I've seen recommended is the Ricoh > Internal 6/4/24 SCSI, so I'll be looking into that one too. I have to recommend Plextor too. First, I've got two of them (PX-412C and a PX-W8220T) and never had a problem with them. Same for my Plextor CD-ROM drives (three PX-32CS, two PX-83C and one PX-63C). Another good reason to buy a Plextor CD-R/CD-RW is that there is a freebsd tool to update the firmware from the author of cdrecord. That's IMHO a big plus. Oh, and I saw that cdrecord 1.9 clains to support BURN proof[1], so buying a newer Plextor drive probably is a good idea.
