Pros: PRICE! The tray doesn't catch on my Antec P160 case bay covers!

Cons: None

Overall Review: These drives are great. The company I work uses these in all of their builds, and I have never seen any of them come back. When I saw it on here, especially with LightScribe, I couldn't believe it. I highly recommend this drive. Don't wait... BUY IT!

Better Than I Expected

SYBA SD-ATA133I PCI IDE Ultra Controller Card (Non RAID)
SYBA SD-ATA133I PCI IDE Ultra Controller Card (Non RAID)

Pros: This is a much better card than I had expected. It even works with Linux!

Cons: Some BIOS and boot-loader configuration needed if you have a "non-standard" configuration. (See other thoughts)

Overall Review: Overall, a very nice product. I have been using it for just over two months. My setup was more difficult than most people would have. If you will have a simple drive (without OS), then it will work very easily and with little effort. If you have a setup like mine (3 OS's on 3 drives, with one on the card), then you might have to re-write part of your boot loader and/or configure your motherboard. Be sure to back-up your important data! Works with openSUSE Linux 10.0
