I really dont like these LG Drives.
I will explain why
They are so slow
I loaded vista on one of my pcs and it took ages to even get though the setup screens.
Its quite fast burning dvds however i have notice that the NEC Drives are alot faster in both loading software, vista and doing cds and dvds.
I am quite disapoinent with these as i brought serveral and the performance ... ...findings. The cd on the LG (This one was behind 1 and half cds than the philiips which was roughly 8 mins difference it was that bad!
DVD Wise The Philips finished 5mins before this LG Drive did.
Both machines were the same specification and the same media player burner media player 11 with windows vista!
So there you have it a performance match where this drive failed big time.

I am quite disapoinent with these as i brought serveral and the performance is naff.

Big disapointment.
I would not recomeend this drive at all and would like to let you all know my experience.
Its good that it does Dual Layer but still would go for another make

Slow reading and write make the optical drives always stable. When you burning much CD/DVD and when the optical drive at hot temperature it will automatically slow down the spin. So I think LG drives not very bad for buyer. ...
