I am looking to potentially replace the DVD drive in my PowerMac G4 (dual 450) with a CD-RW/DVD drive and I am wondering what combo drives will work with DVD Player, iTunes, and Toast 5 (I know there is a compatability list for this at Roxio's site).

Thanks!

If you're using OS X 10.3.3, then any of the Pioneer A0* or 10* drives will work (like the Pioneer A04/104, the A05/105, the A06/106 and the A07/107). It will be compatible with all the iApps as well as Toast. I've got a 106 in my machine now and it works wonders. The 107 is dirt cheap right now and a snap to install. For just over 100 bucks, you can burn DVDs as well.

Those drives will do CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, and have limited compatiblity under OS X with DVD+R and +RW.

I highly recommend this drive as a worthwhile upgrade to an older G4 tower system.

Here's the place I got mine:
