RECOMMEDATIONS: DVD / CD RW

[Chess Gator]

Hello,

What are you guys recommending for a DVD/CD Rewritable? Is there one or two that stand out as the best these days?? Price/Quality

I would say either one of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/...tion=&Ntk=&srchInDesc=

Which ever connection you have pata or sata.

I like Pioneer or Asus (based on Pioneer) burners, real Plextor (Sanyo based), the new LiteOns are supposed to be better than L-Os were for a while there. I haven't been too happy with my Samsung - it has never come near to living up to its specs.

Are you looking for media or burners? For media Taiyo Yuden is the best of the best. Burners.... Samsung, Lite-On, or the real Plexor burners are the best.

Hi,

I guess I am looking for the all in one package. The only things I would be doing with it are loading software, burning the odd DVD and playing the odd CD ROM for music. I rarely use my current one.

Thank you

i own the Lite-on SATA 20x dvd burner, but the samsun 203B sata is even better or just as good

Top five combo units at CDFreaks. Those guys have forgotten more than I'll ever know about optical drives. :laugh:

Note that Samsung has updated the drives, current revisions are 203D and 203P (w/o and w/ Lightscribe, respectively).
