Comment:

I am trying to upgrade from a dvd/cd drive to a dvd/cd-
rw drive in a macintosh G4 tower. I cannot seem to find
any internal cd burners that are compatible with the
macintosh operating system. I know that Pioneer makes
drives for Apple, but I could not find any Pioneer drives
that say they work with mac. Could anyone tell me any
brands and/or model numbers of burners that will work
with macintosh?

not sure about internal burners. I'm using a Plextor
external dual layer burner with my mac mini and it loves
it. Plus i can use it on every other machine that is USB 2.0
or FireWire compatible. Unless you just have your heart
set on an internal burner, this is the BEST burner that I've
ever owned, has worked on all my windows boxes, my
mac, and my linux fedora core 3 box. Not one problem
on any of them.
