There would not be such a thing for SCSI cdrom's too? It would probably
squeeze a few extra months out of my cdrom player. On some cd's (mainly ones
you get with magazines and books) it's making gut-wrenching noises and
spinning up and down all the time.
Interesting fact: the FreeBSD cdrom are never a problem. Does cdrom.com
balance them before shipping them?
