Just to be clear, I have bought from SuperMediaStore but the duplicator
I'm using (which uses the Pioneer 112D as target) is not from them (I
bought it from an eBay seller, whose name I don't have handy here). Mine
uses an Acard 1:1 controller.

From the photos at the SuperMediaStore web site, it looks like they use
the Apollo controller for some towers and Acard for others. Probably
depends on number of targets, presence/absence of hard drive, and rated
speed. For 1:1 I don't think there are major performance or features
differences between them.

My useage is very light, so my experience with the 112D will not help you
in deciding whether the Pioneer can stand the wear and tear.
