Sixdsix, not to contradict, but I was running an AMD K6-2/450 with 64mb and burned at 8x almost exclusively for six months or so (after I upgraded my CDRW to an 8x).

I was also using UDMA-33 connections on the 5400 rpm hard drives.

It had issues with buffer-underruns only when I had a program running that took up too much of the hard drive's time.

Of course in the past week, I've graduated to an AMD Duron 800, UDMA-66, 256mb and a month or so ago I upgraded my HD to a 7200 rpm Seagate 30gb Barrracuda.

No problem! That's what a forum is all about, eh?

I know that RAM isn't a sole factor in a good burn, but with the more you have the safer you are? Agreed? Like you said before, ##### your email and it could bomb yer burn... Nevertheless.. Sounds like you got a nice system now... That Duron 800 is a brilliant chip. I would choose that chip over 90% of any Intel chips as of now...

And Momo.. good post!
