 JH> 48x12x48 CDRW drive by "Pacific Digital" - (another one
of those private

 JH> a sticker claiming PCWorld listed it as one of their "Best
Buy" items.

I suspect you wil have no probems. Pacific Digital has been arrouind since 
the day of 4X CD drives. In fact I have an 8X pacific Digital Drive(Really
an  NEC). It was one of those 4 disk changer drives. Very nice. In fact one
of my  friends has/had one and was using it as a 4 disk Audio CD changer in
his  computer.
