FastMac ships 8x DL SuperDrive upgrade

FastMac today began shipping a new internal slot-loading slimline 8x Dual Layer SuperDrive upgrade for numerous PowerPC and Intel-based Mac models. The drive adds Dual Layer DVD-R (4x) support, faster DVD-RW (6x) as well as DVD+RW (8x), and Dual Layer DVD+R (4x) write speeds. FastMac claims the new drive is up to two times faster than Apple's top-of-the-line slimline SuperDrives, and offers previously unavailable support for Dual Layer DVD-R functionality. The upgrade ($120) works with PowerBook G4, Intel and G5 iMacs, Intel Mac Mini, iBook G4, Power Mac G4 Cube, PowerBook G3, and iMac G3 slot-loading models.
