I've been looking to purchase one of the erasable optical drives which
have been appearing of late. For my money, the Maxtor Tahiti drive seems
the best.  It has a 1GB capacity and a 30ms access time.  Most of the
other drives seem to be around 600MB and have access times in excess of
100ms.

Does anyone know of a vendor that sells a Maxtor Tahiti for Sun, including
a driver?  What about other erasable optical drives?

Thanks,
