I have an old liteon drive that makes a lot of noise at full speed. If I use hdparm to slow down it only runs slow when watching a cd (divx or audio on cd) but not when using a dvd rom movie, strange.
I think I will buy a cheap dvd writer (nec ND1100, DVD+RW or nec ND1300, DVD+-RW) anybody knows if this driwe will slow down when watching dvd-roms ? A already have a nec 1300 in my windows machine but not much time now to swap in to my freevo box for testing but if noboddy knows I will test it before buying one.
