Default Older vs. newer drive? Trying to rate these...

I have several CD-RW drives I'm sorting through right now. Best one will go in
my main computer, the others will be used for backup or in clients systems.

Currently I'm using a Yamaha CRW4260 SCSI 4x2x6 model. It's been reliable, but
getting up in the years. Do newer ones (mostly IDE) have any tech advantages
other than speed? How do these models rate in terms to reliability?

Yamaha CRW4260 4x2x6
Sony CRX100E 4x2x24
Teac CD-W54E 4x4x32
Philips CDD4401/71 (Compaq OEM) 4x4x24

Any input? Has Sony released new firmware that removes the 80-minute bug?

Thanks

GTO(John)
