Best CD-RW Drive

I am building a new system and was looking for the best value in a drive. Will either be going with IDE or USB (if not overly expensive) I will be using it to back up programs, PS2, MP3's, but generally backups of programs (xp, norton, nero, etc). Naturally, with PSX and such, i want one that wil be compatible with CloneCD and the other more selective programs. Currently have a 8x4x32 acer cdrw and its a piece of shit. need a new one that will be very good and erorless with the tasks listed above. thx

pref $130 or less but will go 150 or so if its a good usb

BG is on a distinguished road
I would suggest the LG GCE-8320B. It writes at 32x, Safedisc 2 compatible, writes ALL sub-channel data correctly, and costs $90-$100. It will backup everything you want EXCEPT for PS2. Most PS2 games are DVD's. You will need to buy a DVD burner for that. I rec. Pioneer A03 or the A04. One other note: If you intend to play you PS2 backups you will NEED to get a MOD chip. Go to the PS2 forum for all questions on that... Hope this helps!!
