Reviewed By: 1acepilot on 12/14/2007 Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: This is without doubt THE most quality and reliable SATA DVD writers in its class, bar none; ASUS comes up aces with this one. Not one other drive we have examined has utilized the same solid build thick ribbed press-formed design that this has on the cover housing of the spindle hub,- which affects stability against vibration and wear of the spindle hub ( no sloppiness and give of thin flat metal cover that cause chatter/vibration/premature wear and failure of other DVD writers,- especially those that write at extremely high RPMS necessary for 20X writing). Cons: Absolutely none. Other Thoughts: As a purchaser and builder for a small outfit building primarily high-end gaming systems, with a priority of highest quality over profitability,- I have to consider not only the initial cost of a product but also the durability/reliability of an item under longterm heavy usage,- i.e., will it require warranty replacement or follow-up tech servicing in the future,- resulting in higher end cost to my business? Newegg has often, as in this case, been competitive even over my wholesale sources, offering this retail boxed SATA drive for approx equivalent of my OEM purchase cost,- and their processing from ordering to shipment and delivery is often much quicker and easier than reseller/wholesaler transactions. Hard to say no to that. 124 out of 126 people found this review helpful. Did you? Great Burner! Reviewed By: Matt on 1/25/2008 Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Great Burner! The lightscribe works great too! No coasters yet. Cons: Only a trial version of Nero. I bought retail just to get the software. Other Thoughts: Lightscribe takes a while, but I'm sure this is standard among all brands. 39 out of 42 people found this review helpful. Did you?
