I've not used it w/ 5.3; but I have a hard time believing that Plextor
models will fail to work with FreeBSD.

I've been giving some thought to going w/ a DVD burner; they are
falling in price so that I can afford one. Even the nicer Plextors
are in reach. A quick check at newegg shows that there is about a
$30 difference between the two. That's serial or atapi DVD, btw.
