| Not sure if it's worth much, as IDE CD-RW's are a dime a dozen. I probably have 30-40 from anywhere from 8x to 48x, all makes and models, lying around in my storage room that I have no use for, but they work, so i never threw them away. |

I've got a 24/10/40a right behind me, and it still works.
Do you think I could get $200 on eBay for it? I paid $172 for it new in 2001. |
