  The reason for preferring SCSI for jobs like this isn't so much raw
interface speed, but low CPU utilization -- which, taken another way,
means low sensitivity to other loads on the CPU.  Even a lowly SCSI-1
controller should offer more than enough throughput to support a CD-
RW burn.

  Traditionally, however, *good* SCSI cards have rarely been *cheap*.
 I usually recommend Adaptec for quality or Diamond's FirePort for
price -- but I believe the latter are no longer made.
