Slot Load or Tray Load?

If you get slot load, you won't take the risk of bashing your tray and having to tear apart your drive and fix it again.

Also, the Pioneer 106s has S/PIDF to the sound card, while the tray-load version does not.

It's more dependent on personal preference than anything else.

I like the looks of the slot load better. They are a tad bit more expensive I noticed then the tray load, but I think it's a lot better looking.

it's better to have the tray load cause the tray load allows for both the 5cm and the 3cm discs where as the slot load doesnt

There is no emergency eject hole on a slot load drive. My friend has a CD stuck in his car player and it won't eject. I assume the label peeled from the heat in the car. There's no easy way to get out a stucked CD in the slot. There are more electro-mechanical parts to go bad.

The tray drives are more versatile and strudy. You can eject a CD with no power using a paper clip in that little hole.
