External VS Internal DVD/CD Drives for a MAC Powerbook G4 Laptop

[George]

Need your help, guys!

Putting aside the money issue for a moment, for burning the best quality music CD-Rs, which does a better job, an internal drive or an external drive? Or do they do as well as each other?

I figure that money-wise, external is the way to go, since I see them for about $60? Plus, I don't have to wait for someone to install it or to pay someone to install it.

Last question: can you recommend some MAC compatible external drives that do a superb job of burning music CD-Rs?

Thanks!
