Hi! I am currently using a Kanguru Quicksilver DVD burner with the software DragonBurn - absolutely fantastic program since it adjusts to given capacities for optimum quality and speed ! - and I had no problem ever with CD or DVD in rewrite mode since my Cube takes and reads everything. I have only a 500Mhz cpu and 1,25 G of RAM. Very reliable... As for the external HD, I also use a 120 Gig unit that I split into two partitions, one Current One back-up with no problem. My unit is Firewire connacted for optimal speed. Hope this helps. Gilbert Le 07-08-09 à 07:28, Mauricio Tavares a écrit : > Does the Cube have issues with RW CDs?
