    My optical drives are dying..argh!!

    the last vestiges of my old celeron system are finally dying. My old DVD-Rom and my 4x CDRW drive(that's right, 4X!!!). My DVD-Rom has stopped playing one ov my dvd's...even though it plays fine elswhere. And my burner won't burn anymore!!

    any suggestions for cheap, yet good alternatives?
