[QUOTE="estew, post: 1127931, member: 176112"] Would the optical drive be responsible for a general slow down of other tasks as well? Whether it's iPhoto or FireFox my iMac will sometimes run at normal speeds and then appear to slow down when asked to do too much. I've been searching for a utility program that will help me determine if the problem is the optical drive before going to spend money on a new drive. [/QUOTE]
