I have a DVR-110DBK (BK for black fascia) in my Sawtooth running Panther
and it requires Patchburn to enable mac support but it's the best drive I've
had so far. The DVR-110D does not have the DVD-RAM capability like the
DVR-110 but I recall reading that it may be possible to flash the 110D with
the 110 firmware to enable DVD-RAM capability - no idea whether it's true or
not - nor will I be trying it as I don't use RAM - but it's an interesting
notion.....
My former drive was a Liteon 1633s - also a very good drive - I would
like to get a new drive with lightscribe capability - anyone using a
lightscribe drive in a mac?
