What's the best DVD R/RW?

[snidy1]

I was looking at the Sony DRU-510/DPX. Is this the best one. I don't want to spend more than $300

i'm waiting for the price of the new plextor 8x multi dvd+/- drive to come down and for it to be available. i think it can be had for $285ish from newegg. something like that.

edit:

i was wrong it's cheaper:

I have the Sony DRU-510A, it's one very sweet burner. However if you don't want a dual mode burner you can save some bucks and get DVD-R/RW drive.
