Apple has always had issues with the bezels of the drives it supplies.

The Quicksilver was an attempt to get away from issues with bezels.

I can't comment on the G5.

At least with G4s and G3s earlier than the QS, there were in some  
cases at least three part numbers for the bezels on account of the  
differences in the location of the eject button and/or the manual  
release hole.

If your machine presently has a Pioneer, then by all means replace it  
with a Pioneer.

They are very good drives ... at one point they were the best of all  
drives ... but they have since been superceded by Lite-On, and others.

For a generic case, such as a Hack, where there is no case bezel at  
all, and the drive's own bezel is all that matters, go with the Lite- 
On or Samsung.
