Hi guys, the flood of DVD-ROMs overwhelms me. If you mostly wanted to burn Audio-CD, Data-DVD and rip DVDs, which drive would you choose: 1. LG GSA-4167B 2. NEC ND-4550 3. BenQ DW1640 or even NEC ND-3500A or LG GSA-4166B? Do you know anything about how noisy the aforementioned drives are? Furthermore, media compatibility is quite important to me!
I would pick the Benq 1640 has good compatibility, most of all writes and uses Taiyo Yuden very well. Im not sure about the noise volume of the drive, I just ordered myself a Benq 1655. But for writing data using one of those drives I would choose the Benq with TY media, for writing data etc.
Thanks for the reaction, storm1234. But I heard that the Benq's CD-RW writing quality is very poor. Furthermore, it doesn't write DVD-RAM... Can anybody affirm the installation problems that seem to occur quite often with the LG GSA-4167B?
