10x4x32 HP9300i (IDE) I use Nero to burn with. 10x is plenty fast for me right now, seeing how I don't burn often and when I do it never takes more than 6-8 minutes.

8x4x32 Plextor, not the fastest but it burns everything I throw at it and being on the 2nd slower computer I can wait 8 mins or so for a cd without too much hassle.

Pacific Digital 16x10x32 IDE

It was cheap and it works great. Think it is a rebadged Lite-On. Plenty fast for me and I don't burn that many cds anyway.

I am awash in CD's anyhow. It would be interesting to see how many non-music cds - i.e. software and data - your average pca member has lying around.
