Pioneer 115D 20X burner with Toast 8.0.3 is the go. Most burners are recognised as native and the Pioneer sure is.

We have a Lacie that is fabulous! We were advised to go firewire rather than USB, though. Apparently there are some problems with USB burners' compatibility with macs. Your decision.

firewire also offer more bandwidth for burning DVD's, personal experience with about 4 USB dvd burners is you get buffer under-runs alot slowing down th bun time, with firewire it was never an issue with under-run or cache staying at %100.
