Ok ... I've been busy buying stuff.
I have two drives which I removed from Compaq 5310CA boxes.
Both were manufactured last summer.
One is a Philips 8x4x32 and the other is LG 8x4x32.
They both work since I burned about 5 cdr's and afew cdrw's with each of them. I will even give the Roxio Esay creator 5 cd that came with each of them. Don't delay ...
