Input to the original question: I've been running a Philips CDD3600 SCSI writer with 3.2-stable over the last couple of months. Works fine with cdrecord. Every now and then it needs a knock over the head with a SCSI reset (camcontrol comes in handy) to have cdrecord work with it. Smells a bit like a firmware bug. Other than that it works just fine, no coasters yet (attributable to the drive that is, the only one I made was trying to force 800Mb on a 74min CDR ;-) It's signature: cd1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 cd1: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2 device cd1: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 15) cd1: cd present [54776 x 2048 byte records] It is a 2x writer, so not fast by todays standards. But around here the are cheap, US$200-250 I think. I traded mine for a tape drive.
