Agree with Parallax. You can have extreme unluck with one of the MSI cards... it doesn't cooperate very well with the NEC.

Here's a recommendation you should stay away from - LG
Drive performance is average. Getting firmware updates is hopeless. You are left no choice but to get dodgy third-party updates.

Well, I have a Pioneer 111D, one of the best buys in my life, really.

What about LiteOn? Or more specifically Liteon LH-20A1P 20x DVD+/-R Double Layer DVD-Writer?

I personally choose always NEC because of the excellent price and performance they deliver. I don't recommend Plextor to anyone because of their price when you could have a similar product from NEC cheaper and with excellent performance.

well 400 SEK you told me... well, its not far from the one Parallax_ recommanded, but still. Think I bought the NEC for 315 NOK. Works just as fine.
What i mean with lol.. is that a cheap DVD burner was one of the best bought in your life ^^
Well, practical and a source for free games for sure..

Am I the only one who sees no difference in what DVD writer you buy? I've got plenty and never noticed any difference. One of mine bust, but I sent back and got a new one free.

Wouldn't it be better to make an iso and then mount/test the iso before burning it?
