I have one like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827136046
No problems with it at all. Love it. :)
I have also heard a lot like this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827152035
If your motherboard supports SATA I'd recommend mine.
Thanks guy's , ah i wish i had sata support, but i'll go with the NEC , nice reviews + match case :)
nec is good, I have a 2510, it does everything
Coasters can also be due to old firmware. Make sure you have the lastest.
Also checkout this site for some burner reviews: http://www.cdrlabs.com/reviews/
NEC ND-3540 is now available (not shown at newegg) with even greater performance, assuming you can find matching media at reasonable prices.
hmm...just a thought but before you give up on the liteon have you upgraded the firmware...did you buy good media(liteon's are notorious for only liking good quality + media)..Have a look around the cdfreaks liteon section Going to work can't post much more but if you decide to upgrade the firmware I would suggest you backup your original eeprom before you do just incase(utility on cdfreaks forum).I highly recomend the codeguys firmware it really improves burn quality.Good luck Not sure but you may also look at going from a 1633 to a 1653 that may help thru firmware..Have a good long read in the liteon section of the cdfreaks forum... :wacko:
i have the same dvd burner on my other comp and i have burned over 50 dvd with only 1 coasters and that one was because power failure. if it helps, i use maxell and TDK dvd-r'sQuote:
