I am not sure about the speed issue, but as far as reliability they are 
top notch. My brother bought a 24x10x40 (I think I can't exactly 
remember the speed)
and He has been very happy with it.

Before that he had a NEC model that was slightly slower that he got so 
angry at that he ripped the face plate off it getting it out of his 
system before he bounced it off the wall. (turned out to be a driver 
issue with it and roxio easy cd creator and if he had waited on me I 
could have fixed it for him). I said he was my brother not a computer 
repair guy ;)

LoL I gotta love em, even if he does have a short temper.

I must not fear. 
Fear is the mind-killer.
I will face my fear, 
and I will let it pass through me.
When the fear is gone, 
there will be nothing.

No Fear!
