I don't have a problem burning at 4x with an inferior Kouwell 10MB/s SCSI card. I have a Yamaha CRW4416, which has slightly faster speeds than the CRW4260 but also a larger cache I think. I've heard internal can be slightly more reliable, probably because they get moved less and get slightly better power. Slightly cheaper, as well. I've heard Plextor are good, particularly for readers. -- SEGV http://www.cgocable.net/~mlepage/
