I was wondering what sort of life expectancy one can reasonable
expect from an ide cd burner. I am on my second cd burner, a Mitsumi
40-24-48 burner. After 6 months and perhaps 200 cd's burned, it is
failing. I can only burn smaller iso's (under 500mb) as anything
bigger will cause an error.

I have a Panasonic SCSI 4x writer that still works after 5+ years.
Granted, it was retired to my wife's machine more than 2 years ago and
I haven't burned much with it lately, but it still works as well as
day #1.
