...Hi,
In the past I have always used Pioneer and Liteon Drives in the past. But I bought a Samsung drive (Super-WriteMaster SH-S202J) from www.ishift.co.uk and I must say that not only is it just as fast (20x) and I have seen no real difference in performance between the IDE or SATA drives as the Liteon and Pioneer drives but it is much much quieter! To be honest the whole build quality of the Samsung seems a lot better as well plus it came with the software I needed, unlike many of the Pioneer OEM drives I have bought. Considering the low price I paid I think this is by far one of the best value for money drives I have ever bought. Very happy, this drive comes highly recommended! A+++...

Advantages: Its black, its good, it lasts along time Disadvantages: none
...I’ve just built a new system with two of these in, the main reason was in my last system I had one pioneer 109 and one pioneer 108 these DVD drives had never let me down over the past three or so years I, so it was obvious to me when it came time to build a new system to use the latest pioneer DVD drives.
The pioneer 112 DVD drives are very quiet, very fast, I have the model that can play ram discs as well witch not all DVD writers can.
They can also use all of the standard disc types Inc Duel layer discs if you need to, they come in black or boring beige if you wish.
The main thing I like with this DVD drive they will take nearly all of the different manufactures discs witch I know not all drives will.
its a big i would buy this drive any time...

Advantages: Can burn Dual Layer (8.5GB) media (4x speed), 16x speed for DVD+-R, CD-RW 32x24x40x Disadvantages: Regions can be changed 5 times
...Pioneer DVR-108 16x DVD+/-RW is one of the best or the best DVD+-RW drive on the market. Pioneer's products has good reliability. With this drive you can burn 4.7GB data in about seven minutes. It's also supports writing Dual Layer media - 8.5 GB discs at 4x speed. If you're planing to buy DVD+-RW drive than choose Pioneer DVR-108. Pioneer name means quality. This drive isn't very fast, but burning and reading quality is excellent. It uses RPC-2 region protection. You can change region 5 times and then you will be locked on the last one. This is only one disadvantage of this drive, but now almost all DVD drives have protection from changing regions.
I hope i help you to decide buy or not this great drive. I guarantee 99% that you will be satisfied your decision to buy this device....
