My trusty LiteOn HD166S is dying...starting to misread known good CDs and give "bad block" errors. This thing has ripped more than 1,000 total CDs and DVDs with no errors. RIP my friend. :beer:

So, now the hunt is on. I already have a DL DVD burner (NEC 3550) that I like a lot. I'm looking for "the best" ripper out there. Suggestions?

I've got an AOpen 1648 AAP Chamelon (swappable black, silver, and beige bezels) in this Yahoo Photo Album:

It is no longer made, but I bought it because the guys over at CD Freaks said it was one of the fast dvd ripper ever made:

For some reason, it doesn't play nice with my current MSI 6150 mobo (it looks like it has difficulty reading a few of my dvds and would drop down into lurching pio mode(?), which I would have to uninstall and reinstall the driver to fix), so I am putting it up for sale. I never had any problems with it with my Biostar M7NCG. YMMV.
