Re: mail Digest for 30 Mar 2006 in hour 19:00



" From: Michael Bailey <route66rambler@xxxxxxxxx>
" 
" ----------> Hey Brien, I was looking up this part
" number for you on my 1967-1972 master parts CD, when
" (no $#!+)  the disc exploded inside of the drive. 
" Like a huge horrible boom noise. I thought a hubcap
" fell off the side of my house. The CD exploded. So I
" opened the drive, all this confetti fell out, no more
" work please. I checked my 73 Illustration Supplement,
" but it only shows 73 changes, and all it lists is the
" rubber ones.
" Now I've got an excuse for a DVD r/w/amc + - whatever
" drive. Hopefully a Pierre Cardin. What? Sorry. Ears
" ringing.

exploding cds aren't uncommon; they were never designed for '52x'
operation.  imho superspeed cd and/or dvd drives are a hazard.

if you really want fast access to the data, copy it onto a hard drive.
of course, the access tool may be hard-coded to look for a cd drive...
