thanks

You're looking for a SCSI CD burner, right?

Why?

I know a lot of guys who are SCSI elitists, and who won't touch a lowly IDE drive (HD or CD), but the performance of IDE drives is now on par with most SCSI drives, and with a price that is nearly always much lower. Ten years ago, I nearly always used SCSI drives on the servers I built, but not on the desktops, because of the price differential. But now I nearly always use IDE drives, in all circumstances.

The only SCSI CD burners that I can find anywhere are professional CD duplicators, allowing you to duplicate 2, 4, 6, or more CDs at a time (

And they, of course, are rather expensive. You might also check out Panasonic and Plextor, as they are the only companies that I could find that had SCSI CD-R/RW drives in their product lists.

How do you come to the conclusion he's after a SCSI CD burner when he clearly says DVD and doesn't mention SCSI????

I've got an HP 200i although I use it in an ADS external firewire box. Absolutely fantastic. There are now many internal and external DVD burners in both the '+R/RW' and the older '-R/RW' formats. Tough choice but I've found +R/RW to be far more compatable with DVD ROM players

Oops - just saw the SCSI tag in the heading - sorry.

Go with Pioneer DVR-A04
i use it all the time, you can use any DVD reader to read the data back, DVD-R or DVD-RW,
it will not work with the DVD+RW format HP uses
