I bet it's the same 2x2x6 I found at computer123.com, or some place
like that: the Ricoh CD-R/RW RW7040S. Mine works okay under NetBSD on
my Alpha; unfortunately it crashes my Sparc. Even on the alpha, if you
try to dd the iso image off the disk, it keeps reading past the end and
doesn't stop writing until it fills your disk. Odd....

On the other hand, it writes CD-Rs and CD-RWs just fine, so I'm happy
enough with it, given the price I paid ($160 or so).
