Best SATA drive for ripping?

[WoodrowStool]

I asked this on the "sticky" list detailing the best drives for ripping, but perhaps my question might get more visibility here.

Basically - what are the best SATA interface drives for CD audio ripping? I'm building a new rig, SATA only motherboard, 600 CDs to (finally) rip and catalog, what should I buy hardware wise? I've already licensed dbpoweramp.

Thanks in advance for all helpful replies ...

I won't say it is the best drive, but for an all round drive that can rip CD, DVD, and BD, I found the Lite-On iHBS212 to work great:

Finally some feedback, thank you!

How often do you get an inaccurate audio rip with this drive that has to be redone?
