Brian/Sam,
I'll second the comment on the Yamaha 6x4x16 drive. My SCSI version of this
drive, coupled to an Adaptec controller, hasn't made a coaster yet (at least,
through any fault of its own...)
regards,
m.

In my previous job we purchased a Yamaha 4x6 writer (at a time when such
things still weren't two-a-penny) for use on a Sun workstation and it
always gave sterling service through fairly heavy use. I don't recall it
ever making a coaster.
On the strength of this, earlier this year I bought a Yamaha 4x4x16 SCSI
drive
which has worked perfectly, as has the supplied Adaptec software. A friend
has had a similar experience with his more recent 6x4x16. The newest Yamaha
drive is 8x4x24.
I'm sure there are plenty of equally good drives about, but this is my
experience.
