Pros: Surprisingly quiet even with both fans on high. can configure it in different ways comes with thermal paste very well packaged i7 920 @ idle 40 @ 100% load for 24 hours strait never hit above 60 stock 2.8mhz from real temp with both fans there was still plenty of room for memory and north bridge cooler. The fan overhangs the memory and blows down on it to help cool
Cons: This thing is big - not really a con but it is huge
Overall Review: My ambient temp in the room is high and I still get great temps. It is fairly easy to install not confusing at all. Directions are written well.
No Good

Pros: Black Front, Lightscribe, Reads and writes all media. Price. LiteOn is a decent brand overall.
Cons: Well the one that I got was a dud. It started out good but then i ran into the problem where it would start making costers. I was using DL+R at $3 a pop it starts to add up quick. Then I tried burning just a normal cd-r and it messed that up to. I am using nero to burn and the last thing i tried to burn the cd was blank when it was done.
Overall Review: I am running a fast computer AMD x2 4200. So I know its not the procesor speed or lack there of. However The Drive also had very slow load times. I would insert a disk and it would not show up right away. Somtimes it took over a minute for it to show up. Hmmm Oh well i went out and got me a plextor maby it will be better. I have however bought 3 other LightOn drives for other computers before and they werent bad. The other drivs were just Normal DVD Burners. I guess you get what you pay for. Maby this one was just a dude. Or maby the lightscribe and the DL burning are just to new of technology to be worth buying a cheaper burner. Tom
