OK, I purchased a CDRW Blaster 8432 about two weeks ago. Everything has been fine with it so far, but both my BIOS and windows see it as an 8435E. Can someone please tell me if this drive is made by Plextor, Philips, Matsushita, or perhaps another company. Creatives specifications for the 8435E show a 4MB buffer, and Plextors specs for their 8/4/32 CDRW also show a 4MB buffer. Both the 8432E and 8438E show a 2MB buffer. The front of my drive does not look like the drawing on the 8432E spec page, unfortunately neither the 8435E or 8438E show any drawings for comparison. I do apologize if an explanation concerning the differences between these drives has already been posted. I have read some posts here, but they have raised more questions than answers for me. Thanks for your help. -- Nate
