Default Slotted vs Drilled & Slotted

So I have seen a bunch of threads about both being goods, and how drilled and slotted are prone to cracking due to inconsistencies in the rotor surface. Also, slotted(without drills) has alot more surface area, but dissipates less heat because of not haveing the holes.

Any one have experience with both? and what will be better for a daily driven car that has some fun on the weekends, not a car going to "races"?

i got the slotted and drilled from cquence motorsports and i love them.
If your not going to be going to the track or racing or anything that requires braking every other second, you will be fine. The heat that your brakes will generate during normal driving will not harm your rotors.

i've always hated teh drilled look. so I have slotted only.

in all actuality slotter or drilled are superior to drilled and slotted because of loss of surface area. when having both slots and holes.

If there is no chance of our little cars generating too much heat in normal stop and go driving, I am really liking the slotted and drilled...or at least dimple drilled.
