I'd like to suggest that if you think you want to use CDRW or DVDRW
media that you consider another option. Hard drives are the best value
in available RW space, and probably will be for some time to come. Get
an external USB HD case for as little as $15, and one or more HDs for
it, anywhere from tiny all the way up to 300GB or more. Now that the
lastest IBM USB drivers have supposedly given up their insistence on
using different LBA values than everything else, even multibooters can
use them. For greater convenience for smaller but more frequent RW
backups of smaller size substitute 512MB or 1024MB CompactFlash USB
card(s) and a reader for them costing as little as $7.
