I found an external Yamaha 8424S on ebay (it is a refurbished unit) for only $50
more. This way I do not have to have the CD running all the time, only when I am
going to burn CD's, and I still have the internal for CD copies, and I also
don't have to worry about extra heat inside the CPU created during the burn
process.
