Another Great LG Drive
- Pros: Price
Speed
Reliability
Quiet operation
- Cons: None
- Other Thoughts: I have purchased so many LG drives (both ROMs and burners) that I've lost count. They are speedy, reliable, quiet, and very cost-effective. Whenever I need a new optical drive, it'll be an LG, and it'll be from Newegg!
Good Drive!
- Pros: Good drive.Great price. Does what its supposed to do and does it well. This particular brand seems to have a good life span from what I've experienced with my own drives of this brand and other reviews.
- Cons: Not the quietest drive out there.
- Other Thoughts: If you're going to be watching DVDs on your PC with the volume low i'd recommend getting a drive thats a bit more quiet. I will most likely buy this brand again in the future due to the good quality and great price.
Not Bad
- Pros: It runs the DvD and Regular CD very well.
- Cons: It is a tish on the loud side.
- Other Thoughts: Hey...It's innexpensive, you get what you pay for!
