    A GREAT Burner!

    While I've always been particular in buying computer accessories, such as a LiteOn CD-RW, this Sony drive excels at burning DVD's and many other websites will confirm it! Excellent Features at a decent price.

    Pros: Nice looking,easy to use with 321dvdcopy

    Cons: It was too big for my computer face.

    I had a dvd-burner with my vaio desktop. But it was burning at 1x speed. With the prices droping on the 4x speed so i upgrade my burner. I got this one over the Pionner one was the zdnet review on it. I have try different dvd-r media on it. I would s...till recommend using Ritek media, 99% perfect. I have use optical brand and a few others, but Ritek is still the best. But that was for my 1x speed burning. I am now using a GSC brand and it is same quilty as ritek but not for the extra charge for the name usage. And Ritek will work with my Pionner dvd burner with Tivo in it. I love both unit. I use 321DVDXCOPY and loving it. Now it only takes around 20 min per disk from copying to harddrive and then burning. Read more Less

    The excellent installation guide offers clear illustrations of the jumper settings and otherwise confusing IDE options. Note the slick silver bezel and class-leading 4X +RW specifications. Too bad we saw faster speeds from slower-rated drives. Read more
