Purchase of a CD RW

Does anyone know where the best place to buy a CD RW for?
Any spec, any price. Aslong as its worth the money.

Should I get a SCSI or IDE?

Thanks

CDRW - LiteOn are excellent value and very reliable.
Motherboard - Asus and Abit are 'the names' in that business (the computer equivilant of Nike and Adidas or something). What you want to pay attention to is the chipset the board you buy uses. I don't know much about Intel boards, but if you're going for an AMD processor then getting a board which uses the nvidia nforce chipset is a good purchase (if an expensive one).
To get you started, here is an Asus board which uses that chipset: http://www.asus.com/products/mb/sock...x/overview.htm

Overclockers.co.uk have truly ace customer service, and the prices aren't too far off what you'd expect to pay from Ebuyer, I've strayed to their side.
