I decided to match my colors on my new system, so now I need a new drive. Lite-on has 120 ms access, the ASUS is 95. Is it noisey ??

Well nobody replied but on newegg, the reviews by customers of the lite-on said it was noisey, and all the people said the ASUS was quiet, so I got it. If you have any information, please feel free to contribute, even though I ordered it.

i got the NEC 2510a (dvd burner) and its quiet, and cheap. I was looking to get a combo drive (CD burner with DVD reader) but for like $40 more, dual layer dvd burning (feh) and 8x dvd burning (woohoo).
