If any of you are comtenplating purchasing a MAD DAWG optical drive from anywhere (mainly OfficeMAX) because its a good deal, let me tell you, its not. The drive is fricking huge (about 3" longer than the standard optical drive) It is loud as sin, and often times spins for no reason. It does burn quickly but I dont think its worth it to just save a few bucks. Im glad i got my 52x cdrw for free after mail in rebate or id be pissed! Ok, thats it.

I just didnt want anyone to be fooled by the great prices (8X dual layer DVD-R for $80)

Mine drive was normal size and works fine. I'm happy-assuming the rebates come.
