I have two of these in two systems. 100% bulletproof and reliable, fast and never burns coasters
Runs great with burnermax payload tool.I use verbatims for all burns.I havent had a coaster yet.
-Quiet -Has M-Disk (Millenium\Millenial Disk) support which is great if you use that media as the data on it is "suppose to last 1,000 years" -Not flimsy either in the construction of the SATA ports on the back or the tray! -Have burnt close to 34 discs on it now with no errors yet! -Has a very simple clean look which I think makes it look sleek and nonimposing in a computer some drives have a flashy look them which can make them look like kid's toys!
It's a DVD/CD-RW drive. It was the cheapest at the time and worked fine for me. This model doesn't have the big white ASUS logo printed on the front.
price and works great
