This is take from the FEB 2006 addition of the Australian PC Authority Magazine. DVD Burner LABS

1)- Lite-On SOHW16935 -> $64 -> Labs Winner Top class performance at an unbelievable price.
2)- Plextor PX-740A     ->$249 -> Recommended Great Burner but you pay for it.( bit of an understatment)
3)- LG GSA-4165B       ->$136  -> If speed not top priority the LG has a lot to offer.
4)- Asus DRW-1608P   ->$64    ->Fast quoted speeds are let down a little by performance.
5)- HP dvd640i           ->$97    ->Best of the internal LightScribe drives

I know which one I'll go for half a dozen Plextors Please----sure!
