SAMSUNG CD/DVD Burner 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD+R DL 22X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 48X CD-R 24X CD-RW Black 1.5Gbps Model SH-222AL/BSBS LightScribe Support - OEM

Pros: Worked for about a year,

Cons: Stopped burning dvd's after a year...

Pros: It's worked marvelously up until about 2 months ago. Now it won't even see itself as a Lightscribe capable drive.

Cons: it quit working right

Pros: I've used this drive almost a year now. I use it to read discs and to burn lightscribe only now. Lightscribe software is mediocre.

Cons: I stopped using it as a DVD writer. After just a couple months, it started having problems, so I use another drive for that now.

Pros: Got them dirt cheap and are working flawlessly!

Cons: None!!

Pros: Works fine, fits fine, does what its supposed to.

Cons: Not any yet.

Pros: * nice front panel design and all black form factor
* opens and closes with a nice snap sound
* does what it says on the tin
* has lightscribe ability for making well designed discs for your data library

Cons: Can not think of any. It's a very nice CD/DVD disc burning drive.

Other Thoughts: Although it is true that disc media is now technically dated, that does not mean it is not a practical and wise thing to have in your tower. I love the cloud and USB thumbdrives, but there is something reassuring, to me at least, about having your data on a physical disc that is put away for future needs if necessary.

Pros: i love it. it works great like i wanted it to. havent had any problems with it :)

Cons: none

Pros: Easy install, no drivers necessary.

Cons: Bloat-ware from Nero on the disk but a bright side of it is you get a discount upgrade to Nero's Blu-ray bundle software, if you get a Blu-ray drive.

Other Thoughts: Replaced a failing IDE disk drive with this one and its worked out fine so far.

Pros: Used twice works great

Cons: Don't use it enough

Other Thoughts: Should probably find ways to use it more.

Pros: So far so good, has worked every time and has written to all blank media I have used so far. Only thing I have not tried is the LightScribe portion, need to by these blanks.

Cons: None so far.
