Disc
Pros: better chip quality, throw chips harder, generally cheaper and lighter.
Cons: tend to kick logs sideways due to angled disc, radiators tend to collect dust amd leaves more due to angled power plant.

Drum
Pros: drum pulls in materials in addition to feed wheels, tend to pull things straight in more than disc.
Cons: dont throw chips as well,
