Pros: This has got to be the best drive out on the market from the best manufacturer on the market. Drive has read everthing that i put in it and has read it very fast. From music to movies not a single problem. Rip speeds top notch for both CDs and DVDs and very high quality burns on Ridata discs. And the bundled Nero software is among the best.
Cons: Only 16x DVD+R discs available yet? Cmon I want to use all 20x. And the drive is slightly nosiy when running but worth the performance and capabilities of this drive.
Overall Review: As with some of the other reviews I read, the SmartX smart read technology can hamper read speeds on some discs but you can download kprobe2 to disable that feature on the drive and also enable bitsetting to make a DVD+R appear as a DVD-ROM and hence playable on any dvd player out there. Another home run from Lite-on
