1 out of 5 eggsBad

Pros: Doesn't cost much.

Cons: The drive thinks it has a cd or dvd in it at all times. Within the past week it now has a grinding or rubbing noise every 20 seconds.

5 out of 5 eggsDVD Burning Goodness

Pros: its cheap and it burns quick. its asustek.

Cons: it wasnt free.

Other Thoughts: this dvd burner drive replaced an aging and failed samsung super writemaster dvd burner drive that i had for 1.5 years that i bought from a place that is a "micro center." DVD burners have come down in price, however from what I have seen with the samsung dvd burner, so has the quality. We will see with this asustek dvd burner whether or not it lasts. If a major problem crops up I'll re-review my purchase. I do kind of wish I would have bought 2 when they were cheap as I'm doing a second custom built for resale and I had to go with a liteon for that pc which is really unfortunate because I like asus products.

4 out of 5 eggsLOUD!

Pros: Works

Cons: Loud as all get out...sounds like a jet engine revving up, don't use the cd much at all but would rather have something that is silent, I guess you can't expect much out of a $20 cd/dvd drive.

Other Thoughts: Know for future purchases to make sure reviews say quite or silent

2 out of 5 eggsDOA, Drive Stays Open

Pros: Good specs for a cheap price.

Cons: DOA, opens and wants to stay open, even if I put a disk in. Press the button, tray goes in, you hear some whiring, then comes out a couple of seconds later. Not sure what's wrong with it for it to do that, but I know I need a replacement.

Other Thoughts: Gonna try for an RMA, but shipping for the RMA will cost me 24 dollars, which is more than even the value of this drive. That means, in total, this was almost a 50$ purchase. Plus it'll take time for it to get back. Gonna try to talk to a representative to see if they can't do anything to help me, but this was a big disappointment (the drive being DOA and the shipping costs).

5 out of 5 eggsIt works

Pros: Not a whole lot to say, its a DVD drive and works.

Cons: Tray feels kinda of cheap. But honestly to me, it seems all CD/DVD drive trays feel cheap.
