Recommend a IDE CD/DVD burner?

[kranky]

Can't find any recent reviews or any discussions here for an internal IDE burner. Reviews I found on the web are for obsolete units. Don't care about Lightscribe. Leaning towards the Samsung SH-S182 at the moment. None of them seem particularly costly, so I'd pay a bit more for reliability.

IDE is completely and utterly obsolete, buy a SATA burner. they no longer cost more.

Sony NEC Optiarc DVDRW $20 shipped

I can vouch for this one, I have it in my box right now. Dead silent during movies & ripping & burning. Good ripping & burning speeds also.
