Hello people,

I'm going to purchase a write-once CD drive, to do massive backups
of a UNIX system. Now considering some device like a
Pinnacle MicroCD 1000 (2X speed, SCSI-2, writes to "gold" disks and
works like a "normal" CD drive, too).

But of course I'm going to do a bit of exploration. Where can I get
some more info on the net on this drives?
I mean: WWW sites of those manufacturers who are making this drives,
opinions on what models are good/cheap/bad, hints/tips, etc.

Does anyone have a pointers to the equipment which is able to write
"silver" (aluminium) disks?

Thanks!

P.S. Please, if it's convenient to you, duplicate you answers via e-mail --
     my newsfeed isn't perfect. I'll happily summarize and post here any useful
     info I'll get.
