The Mac platform does not support USB v2 all that well, you most definitely need a Firewire CD Burner. I have just bought one, it runs at phenomenal speed and has a generous under-run buffer of 2meg, so it can burn CD's from your PC/Mac network. It's a Lacie 52x24x52 Mac/PC compatible, built like a lightweight slim metal-tiny tank, which is 2U-rackable *and* has two Firewire ports. Worked straight out of the box. Got it from Calumet for �116 quid. Use Toast Titanium 5 - it does everything - seems rock solid - get the 5.2.1 updater. > I need something that will work in OS 9, OS X and XP. Apologies if this is > in the archives, but I understand its not available at present. Don't know that much about PC's, so there you go.
