Everybody should own a PlexWriter anyhow. ;)
Seriously, though, considering the price of a SCSI Plexwriter, it'll
be worth a post to comp.unix.aix to make sure that that's what it
takes, and that a Plextor will work, for that matter.
For what it's worth, you can get them refurbished from Plextor,
supposedly, for about US$95 for a SCSI cd-rw of some sort. That's
probably the best price I've found on them. The only reason I didn't
get one instead of the Sony drive I finally settled on was that they
didn't answer my email, and I really didn't feel like playing telephone
games trying to find the right number ;)

That's a darn good reason not to buy _anything_, in my world. But I
do like Plextor readers. They're much faster in large reads than
equally-rated other brands, and they seem to get a better sound out of
music CDs. Plus, they'll boot darned near anything.
