    I'm searching for a DVD burner one where I can change the book type (DVD ROM).

    I nned an IDE type drive NOT SATA. Does anyone have either and do you think one over the other would meet my needs?

    Thanks for any and all recommendations.

    I found these 2:

    Pioneer Black 18X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 10X DVD+R DL 18X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 16X DVD-ROM 40X CD-R 32X CD-RW 40X CD-ROM 2MB Cache E-IDE/ ATAPI DVD Burner - OEM

    AND

    LITE-ON Black 20X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 8X DVD+R DL 20X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 8X DVD-R DL 12X DVD-RAM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM IDE Burner with LightScribe Technology - Retail

    if you want to booktype, then go with the lite-on because it is already capable of that out of the box(no new firmware flash needed), with the pioneer you would have to flash buffalo firmware to be able to booktype.

    also i do have a litey 20X(IDE) burner and couldn't be happier with it.
