Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It does everything you want it to without complaining. It burns max speeds for the discs I use with no problems so far.
Cons: Little bit noisy, but for the price, that's expected.
Other Thoughts: I am sure a moder could rig up something to quiet this beast down, but for me it is quite bearable as I rarely use the DVD drive unless burning DVDs.
