I go with cool G5. The recently released Samsung SH-S203 (SATA) is adjudged best by Digit and finds a place in Didgital Tools A-list.Reviews by other magazines are also favourable. I shall be buying one tom.
As regards Liteon, which was always my favourite, the recent crop has been too noisy and many have compared it to a speeding truck or vrooming mixie. My personal experience also goes with it.So I have decided to change my allegiance.
Sony, I believe is mostly rebadged Liteon. I wouldn't take a risk.

^Noisy is true my friend.If you don't like noisy drives then stay away from Lite-On.They are painfully noisy.Even more so with CD reading.My Lite-On has slowly started coughing up with problem after 10 months now.So can't vouch for Lite-on's credibility at this point.

Me too faced tray problems with samsung earlier.But some 6 months ago a friend of mine bought a octaedge drive.It has no tray issues.The performance is also good.
I use a liteon,which is also good.Yeah,but let me warn you it makes some humming noise when spinning.
If u can bear then it's no prob.Both are equally good.I will say just pick any one which suits u.

^^ the new drives from Lite-on cause more troubles, not just noisy....my first Lite-on LH20A1P had no problems........but the same models which I had brought for ma frnds lately hav disk burning troubles too.....and Lite-on drives shows problems in reading some Mask disks( like Zebronics driver CDs for my gamepads )
........and my Lite-on drive after 8 months of use now started showing tray complaints and refuses to eject at at times lately. But when it comes to performance, no one can bet Lite-on.....its the fastest drive that I hav used so far in ma life, and hav the lowest number of disk burning failures.

Will go for the samsung ... i read its review and it was mentioned that it can push a CD to 100 mins with causing any damage

I have seen many guys supporting the octoedge feature of samsung drives but the fact is i have lost a octoedge combo drive ,and two octoedge dvd writer. so i switched to asus and its running great and its very silent. samsung launched a 22x drive too which is worthless even if they have overspeed burning capacity on low speed media as dvd burning at 22x is bound to cause problems.
