Fast and inexpensive and is the retail version with cable and generic software. Installed in minutes and works perfectly.

No light scribe but I usually do not buy the discs anway.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
stopped working

Worked well at first, and was very fast

It died after only about 5 months of not-so-heavy use. I am pretty disappointed. Before it died it started only reading certain kinds of discs, for example movie dvd's but not game cd's and so on...

I would recommend going for something of a little higher quality. I am not very impressed with HP products. As far as DVD writers, I will choose LG next time
