[CUBE] MCE SuperDrive

[Rob In der Maur]

I can confirm this. Also ordered and received the MCE Superdrive. Got 
it installed without any problems and ASP reports DWDB. That in itself 
doesn't mean anything to me, but Toast let me burn CD-R's at 16x while 
the original could only handle 8x at the max.
The drive was $419 for me including the discount you get as was 
advertised on Cubeowner.com and excluding S&H and taxes. A lot of 
money, I agree but my Cube looks like it should (no cables hanging 
outside) and I finally can use iDVD. I'm happy...

cheers
Rob
