    Hey DigitalSk
    Personally I would go w/ the LiteOn. Booktypes right out of the box and has faster ripping speeds.

    NEC is a good drive too but would need patched firmware for booktyping.
    NEC - older ones at least- had riplock on them decreased the rip speed. Not sure if the newer ones do - but patched firmware usually removes this too.
