Toast has worked the best for me using a SCSI Yamaha 4X4X16. No coasters as
of yet. I would steer clear of USB burners using a USB adapter card...they
seem to be problematic and usually can't produce the CD/R's max burn
speeds...most people can get 2X at best from what I have heard and seen from
this list. You should be ok if you go SCSI with pretty much any of the known
drive makers.
