I own a Plextor PlexWriter 4x12 internal SCSI CD writer. It is write
only. It has thus far been 100% reliable. It is supported by
cdrecord (the software you will use to burn under Linux). It burns at
4x speed and reads at 12x speed.

I run mine from an Adaptec 2940uw. The ultra wide cables are 68 pin,
and my cd writer is 50 pin, so I did have to get a 68-to-50 pin
adapter, but that was no big deal.
Good luck!
