I am looking for a good cheap cdrw with decent software package. And I would like for it to be fairly reliable and not burn coasters. I have heard that you need to get one that does bit by bit writes for making "backups " of game cds . And I would also like to know can i just drag and drop zip files to a cdr as I download them or do I have to have 650 meg ready at one time. So lets have some discussion... creative 8432 maybe? acer? I know plextor is supposed to be the best but I doubt I can afford the name.... Unless they make for someone else under a different badge.... Thanks all!!
