It bears mentioning that the tray release of the Pioneer BDR-209D gets stuck when ejecting it while empty. I’ve been using a paperclip to eject the empty tray by inserting it in the eject hole of the actual drive. Other than that annoying fact, the burner works beautifully and ejects fine while holding a disc.
Comes with all apps pictured.
Price: $850 • Pick-up only • Cash only • Bring a monitor and usb keyboard/mouse to test, if you like.
If you don’t haggle on the price, I will throw in a back-up power supply that I have on hand from another MacPro, and a bluetooth Apple Magic Mouse (A1296) with batteries.
If interested, send email through the Craigslist "Reply" option. I'll respond with my personal email.
