I have this drive at work, and I must say it works just fine and dandy.
But even under 2mb of cache, you may get a "buffer underrun" when you burn
at x4 speed. and even if it works, most CD-ROMs won't read it, for some
odd reason. I've looked at one such CD media, and I believe I've seen a
*hole* in it, just as it came out of the CD-R. I emailed the manufacturer
and they said it could be the result of a not-so-well focused beam.
I talked to another person who bought it and he had the same proble,.
though less often.
