Please post any information you may find, Matt/Richard. When I bought my
machine from a company that builds FreeBSD machines, they asked me if I
wanted a CD-RW. The one they were selling was an HP 8200i. I asked if it
worked w/ FreeBSD and was told that it did. Quite distressingly, it did
not. I have yet to burn a CD w/ this device under 2.2.8, 3.0.X, 3.1, or
3.2. 

Admittedly, I haven't had a ton of time to look at it, but all attempts
to find information and guidance on this topic have gone basically
unanswered. All docs/suggestions that I've found haven't worked. I
realize the ATAPI support has been a moving target. I expect that
support for the 7200/8200 will fallout eventually. I'd be curious to
know if anyone else has had success with these particular drives.

Jonathan Bresler recommended I ask about this on freebsd-hardware so I'm
CC'ing this there too.

I appreciate any info anyone may have.

Thanks.

Brian
