I can totally recommend the Que! firewire CD burners from QPS. http://www.qps-inc.com/ I have the 12x10x32 model and it performs without a problem with my PowerBook. The best thing is that with firewire (like USB) you don't have to shut the machine down, just plug the cable in and there you are. Luke.

I'll second that recommendation. We just got one for our Macs at the office a couple weeks ago, and it's been grand. It's built on Plextor mechanics, so that's also a plus. -Ryan At 12:05 PM 4/26/2001 +1000, you wrote:

I have an older 4x4x6 or something like that. I'm rocking Toast 5, which is wonderful, but I haven't found a new version of Jam that supports firewire. I'd be nice to make real audio cds... -------------------- -l[e^2] *new { ^this.shouldNotImplement(thisMethod) } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I wouldn't recommend QPS, having heard too many horror stories about their tech support. Their 12x10x32 CDRWs also had bad problems writing audio CDs in Disc-At-Once mode for a while. I have an APS (http://www.apstech.com/) 16x10x40 Firewire drive that I'm pretty happy with, except for the noisy fan (thankfully I can turn it off when not needed - love that Firewire hot-swapping!). The drive's burn-proof feature along with Toast 5 makes background burning pretty much flawless. My case has only a Firewire interface, but newer versions have both Firewire and USB (currently US$329. Damn!). I've heard of various issues with their newer Firewire/USB bridge (i.e. turning off the drive causes the computer to freeze), and APS's tech support isn't exactly the best, either. And Jam 2.6.2 supports Firewire CDRWs. s.
