SATA, Lightscribe
Overall same as other Lite-on lightscribe burner's I have used, nothing special other then SATA which makes the inside of my case nice and clean. Simple install, my ASUS P5B Deluxe had no issues installing Windows from it.
None really, maybe that it is $xx more then same drives with EDIE, but worth it so far for me.
If you want a clean install this is nice, plus with EIDE on its way out the door and more M/B's coming with 1 EDIE connector this is nice choice.
Write speeds are average, I burned using NERO 6 at 48x CDR, 4x DVDR (due to my media limitation's).
If you're planning on sticking with XP for a while, this drive should work fine for you.
After hours of frustration trying to get this drive to work, I finally figured it out: this drive is incompatible with Windows Vista. =( Plug in my XP hard drive, and everything works fine. Plug in my Vista hard drive, and this DVD drive doesn't recognize a single disc inserted into it.
Samsung's web site is horrible. And to think, they used to be such a good company... =(
