X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 25 May 2005 14:30:07 -0000 Hi, Within a few weeks I will be aquiring a new server, and it will most likely feature a 64-bit AMD processor. One of the (hardware-wise) things I need to solve before being able to actually get it, is which DVD burner (for back-ups, etc.) I can best install in it. From the FreeBSD 5.4 AMD-64 hardware compatibility list, I seem to gather the following drive may be a good candidate: Logitec LDR-H443U2 DVD-RAM/-R/+R/-RW/+RW drive Does anyone have any experience with this particular combination and/or can anyone perhaps recommend me some other good alternatives for the AMD-64 version of FreeBSD 5.4? Thanks in advance, and cheers! Olafo
