I didn't know a list still existed?
If you don't get the drive from MTU it's hit or miss as to whether it will work satisfatorily. A drive that works well for one may not work well for another. To see if a drive is going to work for you MTU recommends trying three different disks and brands and check your results.

For what it's worth I have an Optiarc AD-7530A in my Acer Laptop. On a 15 song disk I probably end up with 8 tracks that are perfect, 4 tracks that are so-so and 3 tracks that are nearly unusable.

Your only sure bet is to buy the laptop if you like it but budget for replacing the drive. If the drive works for you then you'll save a few dollars.
