4 out of 5 eggscheap

Pros: It was needed for a new computer build and it was cheap build quality is ok it is rather loud but not a issue for how rarely it will get used(likely only a few times a year)

Cons: it could be cheaper,and quieter

Other Thoughts: if you need one this one works fine

4 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Runs installation, which is all you should use it for. Don't plan on playing movies on this since it's high and loud sound will decimate your ears.

Cons: Really loud, like having a Vtec engine inside your PC.

1 out of 5 eggsLOUD -- HEAVY VIBRATION

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Unbearable vibration and resulting noise, like a turbojet was trying to take off inside the computer

Other Thoughts: Considering the price of dvd writers, I don't know why I bought this in the first place, except that it was a few bucks less on sale, and it said Samsung, otherwise known as TSST.

3 out of 5 eggsVery loud.

Pros: It read my windows install disc.

Cons: Extremely loud.
You can hear it from 2 rooms away.

Other Thoughts: If your like me and only use the dvd drive once to install windows then its great other than that spend another 5$ and get a quiet drive.
