This eBay vendor has a bunch of NIB CW-8121 drives for $85 apiece:


or 10(!) for $750:


I've no relationship to this vendor, just figured it to be a good price.

BTW, these drives work fine in Lombard/Pismo as well, they'll pop right

Re: Mac CD-RW Burners (For Powerbook G4?)

2004-05-18 Thread Jeff Greffe 

You wrote about "sites that describe how to make your own bracket" and 
I have spent 45 min trying to find one ... no luck !

Any idea where I could find this info ?
Thanks ,
Jeff
Actually there are lots of slot loading slim drives (Combos and 
DVD-R/Ws),
but as JSH points out, the problem is the bracket for powerbooks that
shipped without a Combo. The aftermarket drives are smaller than the
original DVD and require said bracket. The companies that sell the 
"kit"
charge an arm and a couple legs, but the installation is greatly 
simplified.
There are sites that describe how to make your own "bracket" and save 
some
cash. Should be noted that bare 4x DVD burners (the Matshita UJ-825) 
cost a
lot less than companies' 1x or 2x burners with the kit (e.g. $260-is 
vs.
$330-350). If you're handy with aluminum sheet, go for it. As JSH 
points
out, the slot-loaders can also be fitted in Pismos. I've got a Matshita
UJ-815B in mine. Very cool looking, plus no worries re. making the 
faceplate
fit.

Re: Mac CD-RW Burners

2004-05-17 Thread Amanda Ward 
Hi Charles,
I tried these links, however when I get to frameworks there is 
DiscRecording.framework listed. Could this be a problem from the 
installation since I didn't have a CD burner attached? Would it make 
any difference that the drive is USB?

Scratching my head,
Amanda

Subject: Re: Mac CD-RW Burners (For Powerbook G4?)
Date: Mon, 17 May 2004 02:10:27 +0200
So what CD/DVD-RW is possible and preferred to replace the one in the
early Powerbook G4's (400/500 and so on)?
There aren't very many slot-loading slim drives out there. MacResQ has 
them for about $149. That gets you a Matshita CW-8121, which is a 
8x4x32x8 combo drive. Logic supply sells the CW-8122, which is a 
16x10x40x8 combo. However, if you have the 1st-gen like I do, then the 
MacResQ drive comes with a bracket and the proper cable. The bracket 
for the stock DVD player isn't removeable, but it would be possible to 
fab your own if you can work with .030 aluminum sheet. I think the 
connector on the drive is in a different place, so you can't use the 
cable from the DVD player either. I got the MacResQ model, then later 
got one from Logic and replaced it. The first one is now a cool 
slot-loader in a Pismo. One problem with the faster drive, it only has 
a 2MB buffer so music CD's have a few skips if I burn at the top speed.
The good thing about both of these drives is the native support in OSX.

I don't work for Other World Computing, but they've been running the 107 
"SuperDrive" on specials, including this from their last e-letter of 
specials:

-- 
Burn CDs and DVDs quick with a Pioneer DVR-107 'SuperDrive'! Use Apple 
iDVD,
Apple iTunes, Apple Discburner, Roxio Toast, Retrospect, etc. Burns DVDs 
at
up to 8X, CDs at up to 24X speeds - and reads DVDs and CDs fast too.
Pioneer DVR-107 'Superdrive', just the drive itself, $115.00

or with: 5 pieces DVD-R  10 pieces CD-R media with Jewel, Dantz 
Retrospect -
$125.00 
---

and with that (depending on your Mac model having fast enough processor), 
you could burn DVDs as well! Take a look if you want to see particulars, 
and you can sign up for their e-letter while you're there. I think 
they've also had CDRW's if you don't need (or can't take advantage of) 
DVDs burned. They also have a program called Discribe which (IIRC) can 
burn DVDs on *other* Mac systems than those that can run iDVD. Info on 
their website about that, too...

On my B&W G3 running OS X, the drive was recognized by iTunes, Toast and
iDVD. I used it to burn CDs with iTunes and Toast, and burned DVDs using
Toast and iDVD no problem...

featurectomy /fee`ch*r-ek't*-mee/ n.: The act of removing a feature from a
program. Featurectomies come in two flavors, the `righteous' and the
`reluctant'. Righteous featurectomies are performed because the remover
believes the program would be more elegant without the feature, or there is
already an equivalent and better way to achieve the same end. (Doing so is
not quite the same thing as removing a misfeature.) Reluctant featurectomies
are performed to satisfy some external constraint such as code size or
execution speed.

Is the drive a direct replacement for the older SuperDrives, such as a

Subject: Mac CD-RW Burners
From: Amanda Ward <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hey all,
I recently bought an Iomega USB CD-RW burner that the packaging said
was "Mac Compatible". Well yeah, I can burn CD-R media and read
audio/data disks using Toast (Of course Iomega doesn't yet support OS
X). While that's okay, I really wanted the RW capability and to be able
to burn from iTunes. Anyone know of any software that will allow me to
read and write to RW media?
While I'm at it, how about any suggestions for other drives that might
accomplish the task.
I'm running a B&W G3 with a G4-450 CPU and Jaguar 10.2.8
Thanks,
Amanda
Try downloading Patchburn for Jag or Patchburn II for Panther. It 
modifies the support files of most any drive so that OSX sees it as 
native. Then you won't need Toast for Finder or iTunes burning.
