OM was out of the Verbatim drives and was selling the Cendyne 48x12x48 instead. The one I picked up was a Samsung 48x24x48 drive model sw-248F. On Samsung's site, this drive is supposed to have a 8mb buffer. Nero InfoTool shows a 2mb buffer and only a 32x write speed?!?!? Not sure what the scoop is here.

The OEM drives only have a 2MB buffer.

I picked up a Pacific Digital 52x24x52 drive they were offering as a substitute because they were out of the Verbatim drives. I also picked up a 100 pack spindle of e3 works CDR's for FREE after rebates. The CDR's say 48X but the ATIP for the CDR's look like this:

On another topic, the Pacific Digital CDRW I got a while back for $20 & no rebate! (as a sub for another CDRW w/ rebates) was a Lite-On. The CDRW Gods were smiling on me that day!
