Hi all, This has probably been covered on the list before but.... what would be a good ATAPI CDR burner for cdrecord/2? I'm looking for something with BurnProof and not SCSI as I don't have any SCSI host devices. I have looked at the supported drives on the CDrecord site and frankly I'm not sure if some of these burners are still available (or available to me). Everywhere I go I see Liteon or LG burners. Guess what's not listed on the site.

I have used Diamond Data (Mitsubishi) in the past, and currently have installed a Sony CRX-175E. Neither have given compatibility problems, though the Diamond Data drive died at 12mths and 27days old - just 27 days out of warranty and the distributor wouldn't even entertain the idea of a warranty job.
