I have one of these beasts, and it works reasonably well.
Mind you reasonably: there are some things which it apparently cannot do: I have problems ripping audio of a copied CD: for some reason, I get scsi (I use scsi emulation) timeouts. I can copy copied CD-roms just fine.. Anybody know of a fix for this ? Am I looking at dying drive or is this normal ?
