Default BEST CDRW to put in new Cheese Grater?

I opted to buy my new Dual 1 Ghz Cheese Grater from a retailer, so I didn't have the build to order option of getting the second CDRW drive.

For a number of reasons (speed being one of them), though, I'd like to install a second CDRW drive in addition to the Super Drive.

I assume that you don't need an ATA CDRW drive with any special Apple ROM.

What's the best choice out there? What drive burns the best audio CD's to send out for replication?

TIA

Any of the new Sony "High Speed" CDRW will do. What I like most about them are "gravity clips" so you can mount your computer sideways.

Wow, 48x. Burners are picking up speed. I'm actually looking for a raw unit to put inside the G4, though.

I'll have to check out the Sonys. I was poking around at www.megahaus.com, and it seems like there are also some interesting Yamaha units -- 40x -- but they also seem to have some special technology for audio CD burning. I wonder if it comes into play on a Mac.

For internals, look at this page but I've not read enough to know if it is Apple compatible:
