where do u get nec in india ? anyways avoid 3550 .. go for 4551 or 4571 ..

anyways, benq is king in dvd writing .. be it 1640 ,1650 or 1655 .. just avoid 1670 .. this drive is based on panasonic chipset .. same as sony dru 820a which is nothing but benq dw 1670 ..with sony faceplate and more price as always .. get this drive if u love sony brand..

also lite on shm 165p6s is shaping very well with good firmware updates from lite on ..

also what's the price of benq 1650 here in mumbai ? ..

and one more thing .. if any of u want just plain , dependable and fast writer then LG GSM H10N for 2000 rs is damn good too ...

HI friends,
seems my first post.. i got my benq dvd writer 1650 two days back... it cost me rs. 2000/(box pack)...guys, one question???.. which is the best disk in terms of performance & of course which is available in mumbai... i tried moser baer.. but this drive can't write properly on this disk at 16X...it took 13-15 minutes to write 4.11gb of data & when i tried to copy it back to hard disk it gave me some vague error like Data Error (cyclic redundancy check)...do anone know why?????

i also used to get this error message initially(i was using IMATION DVD-R)
then i reduced writing speed to 4X and it was fine....

I use DVD Shrink now n it all works fine...but my liteon sucks as i mentioned in another thread it dont like most of the DVDs....

It should be there in Primary/Secondary Channel, whichever you are using (just below the "Transfer Mode").
BTW, are you using Win XP?

Hi!

I have absolutely NO problems with the MoserBaer DVD. It burns absolutely fine at 16x in about 6 minutes. Make sure that the DVD's you are using are genuine.. There are a lot of "fake" MoserBaer's in the market. The genuine MoserBaer has "MoserBaer" written in Red and Black, the fake one has it written in silver. You can also try Writex DVD's they also burn just fine @ 16x.

Oh my god :( I have purchased 10 "fake" MoserBaer DVDs that you mentioned. It did seem a bit strange to me that the writing was in Silver instead of red/black :mad: . However I haven't got any error while writing. Do you think I should discard these as they might prove to be troublesome in future? :confused:

BTW, how did you come to know that these are fake? just because the writing is different or have you actually used them? :confused:

@nikhilpoddar: My Q-Suite settings are WOPC enabled, SB enabled for both known and un-known media, OS disabled.

@royal: Yes, i've used those. They go bad pretty soon! Dont use for backups :p

How is an LG or Samsund DVD writer...as in my city these two are the only brands available with proper warranty... for sony n other brands dealers are warning about warranty problem... I had very bad experience with my SAmsund CD writer and am very pleased with my very very old LG drive... so which should i go for.... both are priced at Rs 2250...

I have brought LG DVD/CD rewriter 3 months back. Model no. is GSA-4167B. It is working fine. Only it makes a lot of sound while reading CDs. Also, the burning software provided with it is Nero Express 6 and not Nero Burning Rom 7. This software lacks some functionality of Nero Burning Rom and not easy in using.
