I would like to add a DVD burner to my system.
Anyone have recommendations on which ones play nice with FreeBSD?
With so many formats I am trying to decide which one will be my best option.
Thanks

Hi,
Tnx again for your answer!
Most of what you need is already in the GENERIC kernel. The rest is a
available as modules. IIRC, you have to load the cam.ko module.
Just use the ATAPI DVD burner via CAM. AFAICT it's very stable. I
haven't burnt a coaster yet. An SCSI DVD burner is bound to be
Hi Roland,
First off: tnx for your reply!
I haven't tried burning DVDs with the ATA driver. The manual page for
growisofs says that you should use SCSI devices on OpenBSD and NetBSD,
but it doesn't mention FreeBSD.
Hmmm, one would guess FreeBSD not to be very different in that respect.

Hi Roland,

Hi,

2200S. What I'm wondering about is the following: would it be possible
to use the 2200S as a regular controller for a SCSI DVD rewriter, in
combination with it running 4 drives in RAID 10 mode?
The controller has two U320 channels and allows up to 30 devices to be
connected to it.

Hello.
Sorry for the OT, but where do you find SCSI DVD burners?
From which manufacturers/resellers?
I never managed to find any and I thought they didn't

Thanks for your replies!

Over the years Plextor CD and DVD rewriters have served me well. That's
why I chose a PX-712A for my amd64 system. It works flawlessly with
cdrecord and growisofs via the CAM SCSI subsystem.
Tnx!
I'll take a look at that one.

Actually you mention something interesting: I hadn't checked out the
interface type. Do you know if DVD rewriters would typically be SCSI or ATA?

Hi,
Within a few weeks I will be aquiring a new server, and it will most
likely feature a 64-bit AMD processor.
One of the (hardware-wise) things I need to solve before being able to
actually get it, is which DVD burner (for back-ups, etc.) I can best
install in it.

My understanding is that any burner will show up and give you a block
device, rather it's the authoring software that has the burden to
recognize the burner for what it really is, and make full use of it.
That said, what authoring software are you intending to use? I've had
lots of luck in
I'm thinking of buying an IDE DVD burner, ideally one of the new
double-layer type.
Are these generic products? If not, what should I choose or avoid?
My computer is a 700 MHz P3 coppermine with 512 Mbytes of PC100 ram,
is it going to be fast enough?
TIA

I have a Plextor PX-708 that is working perfectly on a 5.3-STABLE, but
I highly recommend the Pioneer dvr-108

I have 2, one in my mac (which is a 107D) and dvr-108 in a freebsd box
and both have been
wonderful, I have also had a NEC 1000a which died 3months after I
bought it.

I'm currently running 5-CURRENT but I'm heading for 5-STABLE.
I've noticed the new DVD burners that support multi-layer (at least
that is what today's Best Buy ad calls them) DVDs.
Since it doubles the capacity, and my first application would be to back
machines up, I've been watching
Hi,
Can anyone recommend CD or DVD burners that are at least ATA66
compatible? I'm not too keen on the idea of a burner dragging
down my ATA133 60GB drive to ATA33, yet these are all I can cu-
rrently find on the market.

Trent.

There are none currently. The solution is to use your secondary IDE
channel for your optical drives, your Primary IDE channel for your boot
drive and a secondary controller (They're dirt cheap, like $25) for any
other drives. Keeping your Hard drives at 1/channel improves
performance, since
