though i really can't tell u much about DVD writer .......but i m for sure i m not going to buy any optical drives from samsung ....nor anybody in my friend circle .....
Samsung optical drives are a crap shoot. Sony 8x and 16x are by liteon, 12x is by sanyo/optorite. Not much of a choice there.
Go for pioneer, NEC, Toshiba.. Even LG is better, but for compatibility with disks available in India, go PIONEER!!!!!! Some Plextor like the 12X also uses Sanyo chip sets but they seemed to have improved the firmware a whole lot. Also plextools lets you train the drive to the disk. Which no one else does. Sanyo chipsets also lets you write 1Gig disks using 800meg CD's and such...
Has anyone even read the reviews let alone have first hand experience before recommending drives to others?
Review on every drive.........
