Hi, I'm thinking of buying a cd writer. The howto suggests that most ide drives should work fine with Linux. But I was just wondering what modals people have had good results with and more importantly if there are any to avoid. thanks

I got a CDR from Sony several years ago. It developed some problems, and I was really impressed with the way they worked with me to fix them and ultimately took it in for warranty repair work (which did fix the problem). It's an IDE and I haven't yet braved the necessary screwing around to get
