Other than the fact that the drive is 'noisy' when a disk is inserted, I have had no problems whatsoever (oh yeah, I *did* have one problem where one of the two drives refused to recognize that a disk was inserted. Sent it back for warranty service and got it back, repaired, in 10 days!). The bottom line - I like it.
