To: freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Greetings, I'm trying to decide whether the CD-RW drive I buy for my FreeBSD system should be SCSI or EIDE. The Plextor PlexWriter 12/10/32 CD-RW comes in both varieties, with the SCSI costing about $100USD more. Are there any discernible benefits to SCSI CD-RW drives? Any reasons why I shouldn't get the EIDE/ATAPI CD-RW drive? Regards, Graham _____________________________________________________________________________ http://clubs.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
