What is the best CD-RW drive for an Amiga 2000HD?

A military spec DoomMaster for you all, hmm maybe I should have made his head a ceramic package.

Okay enough of these annoying threads and I'll stop the annoying posts in them.

Yeh, they're ceramic packaged chips that have advantages of dissipating heat better.  Although a component is not military grade just because it's in a ceramic package, thats BS.  As DoomMaster says the grade relates to the components ruggedness and expected lifespan.

Nothing wrong with taking the piss every so often, no nastiness intended.

I think he is trying to get a system that will last as long as possible with out screwing up rather than a performance increace.

@ DoomMaster, use it as your new avatar :-D

@NitrousB

You are mostlikely right, and maybe the ruggedness of the early chips qualifies them as a military grade.
