OT: Exploding CD & A1
« on: December 21, 2002, 02:46:32 PM »
Hi
I read several case of Exploding / shattered CD inside a high speed CD-ROM drive(faster than 48X).

Most reported cases are with AOpen, Benq, LiteOn and Samsung CD-ROM. SONY put a warning label on their drives.  This explosion may harm (or even kill) the user. It may also damage hard drive or power supply.

The cause of the explosion are mysterious.
Some suggestion:
1. Micro crack near the spindle.
2. Paint / label that cause imbalance.
3. Misaligned hole.
4. Heat / cold problems.
5. Old CD / bent CD.

Is this a hoax or a real case?
Will similar hazard / problem exist on AmigaOne?
Is it possible to buy AmigaOne with slower CD Drives?
Thank's
