I have found just the opposite. The only truly reliable, fast and
problem-free cd-rom drive I have found are the scsi drives from plextor.
They may cost a bit more, but when you factor in the cost of having to
tinker with the hardware, they are a real win.
I am a forunate guy who is totally ide-less at work. :-)
