Try and get a drive which is natively supported by OS X or OS 9, or whatever you use. The Pioneer DVR-K05 is supported natively by 10.4, and is supported through PatchBurn by 10.3. Both my Panasonic UJ-845 and my Pioneer DVR-K05 have been great drives. And, in my desktops, I use Pioneer DVR-106, -107 and -109 drives. The -109 supports dual-layer; the -106 and -107 do not (but these do support + media). -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
