SCSI is definitely the way to go as far as CD-Recorders go at least. I have an IDE Atapi Internal Sony CDU-928E. It works just fine for *some* things under Windows 9x but has just generally been a whore since I bought it. I hear some good things about IDE but more good about SCSI. And a lot of bad about IDE and very little bad about SCSI stuff. I wish i would have gotten a SCSI drive but i didn't even know the interface existed at the time ;) Samuel Greear To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
