I've not had experience with an Asus drive before, but I've had great success with NEC drives if that's any help

Thanks Ian,

Could you please let me know what NEC drives you have used.

Thanks,

Any DVD drive from a decent manufacturer are good these days imo, Asus, Samsung, NEC, Pioneer, Plextor etc.

I've had a few over the years, my most recent being the NEC 7170 (I think that was the model), however there will be better ones out now. I'm sure V_R is right though in that any decent make does a good DVDRW drive now, as the technology is so standard now and that most of the components will be the same now anyway

Sony drives are made in the Lit-eon factory . I have the Lite-on DVDRW SOHW-1693S and its never missed a beat , put one in me sisters pc aswell . If that helps at all .

I have one Asus DVDRW and one Asus DVD-ROM drive.

No complaints, they're good drives.

The best optical drive I have though is my Plextor IDE DVDRW which boldly goes where other drives fear to tread

And that statement is not quite as daft as it sounds, as it happens

I have an NEC DVDRW as well and I recently found out it's a Sony drive in disguise

And I loathe Sony, I really do.
