Another bonus is that it (unlike some other drives) supports all the DAO type read/write stuff that you need for clonecd to be able backup your copyprotected games.

Subject: Re: Cyberdrive CD burners
Hi Dion,
We had one lecturer in one dept go out & buy one. He had to get it
replaced within a very short period of time. Here at the IT Dept we only
recommend the following brands of CD-RWs - Yamaha, SONY, Aopen or Plextor
brands. There are some other brands out there that no doubt work just as
well ( & there are also some real lemons!! ) the main reason we selected
these 4 is that we have tested them & found them to meet our requirements.
You might want to try having a look at the Aopen CD-RW drives. They are
reasonably priced & ; work well (I've got one myself :) ).

This question isn't exactly Linux specific but...
I am looking for information on the quality of the Cyberdrive CD burners
that Dick Smith Electronics have been advertising recently.
My reason for asking is that I need something to burn my Linux
distribution to a CD (I have several hundred megabytes of debs sitting
on my 4 gig disk) and I am a school student (euphemism for "kid")
without much money.
I was wondering whether or not these CD burners are of reasonable
quality, or are they cheap for a very good reason?+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
