I'm VERY leery personally of dual-format burners.

The Sony has a HUGE problem database. Any popular DVD burning site is filled with reports of bad BIOSes for the DRU-500.

The NEC dual-format burner (1300A) has a plethora of media compatibility problems, even some media that works on their +R only burner (1100A) doesn't work on it.

I haven't seen any first-hand reports of the A06 yet, but I'm very leery, I am starting to think there's something intrinsically problematic about dual-format burner engines.
