So I've heard good reviews about the Plextor 708UF Dual Format DVD Burner...

Anybody have any experience/opinion with this?
My main concern is the fan noise.

What's your thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Very quiet.

I have one too and love it. It's a great product and I have had no problems burning at 8X with Ritek DVD+R 4x Media.

Plextor is just about as top of the line as you can get in terms of professional media.

most of the time I wouldn't reccomend using an external drive anyway, but as long as it's got Firewire I would say it would be fine. Plextor makes top quality products, so I doubt you'll have anything to worry about there. And it should be pretty much the same drive as the 708A but in an external enclosure.
