I'm thinking about getting either the NEC ND-2510A, the LG GSA-4120B or the LiteOn SOHW-832S, can anyone give me the pros/cons of each drive and what your final recommendation would be ?
Hi, Some of the old NEC's were picky about media but that doesn't automatically translate to the DL madel. Otherwise they seem to be decent drives. LG's just plain suck pants so if you enjoy frustration and lots of coasters go for an LG. Lite-On's have a well deserved reputation for great performance at a great price plus there's a plethora of cool tools and firmware tweaks for Lite-On burners. If it was me picking one out of the three you listed this is the one that I would buy.
