Anyway, I am watching to see what drives actually will work and not get fried. Thanks for the info. Makes me feel not so stupid. -- Dennis M. linux user #180842
Plextor rocks. So does Teak & Velo.

Yes, I like Plextor. BUT, when this first came up on the cooker list, the only drives involved were LG CDroms, at $19.95, that were mostly all blacklisted by kernel.org. It's not a widespread problem. Well, other than many Linux users not being aware that not all hardware is suitable for anything but Windoze.
I had never even heard of LG Electronics before this came up.
I'm surprised to see problems with LG drives. LG usually produce cheap, robust, OS-independent hardware - in fact they're the only hardware company I've seen mentioning Linux on the box.
