I can't seem to find any current information on this topic, and I'd rather not buy the wrong thing, so I figured I'd ask the experts.

Basically i need a drive that will allow me to rip CDs that have the INDEX 0 in EAC. Everything i can find points to the Plextor Pro model, but the long and the short of that is that you can't find them. Here's what i need:
-Rip INDEX 0
-Rips audio accurately
-has SATA connectivity
-Comes in black
-would be nice if it were a DVD-RW but that isn't a dealbreaker.

I saw that plextor has a 810sa, but i wasnt sure if it did INDEX 0

Thank you so much in advance!

Here's a thread which lists a load of drives that can do HTOA. You may have to do a little more searching to discover whether their other attributes match your list of requirements though.

This thread also has some advice on drives.
