I just purchased a TDK velocd 16x R, 10x RW, 40x Data Read, ATAPI/E-IDE CD-RW Drive and I am impressed. I was a little concerned but installation went without a hitch. It is speced as Burn-Prood. The software is not as easy to use as Adaptec but then Adaptec is not that obvious to use either. I burned one CD-R disk and set it at 16x and it was fast. I hadn't really read much about TDK before but it looks good so far.
