just wondering if the DQ60 was essentially the 1640 that gets such high praise around here. i was hoping to buy a couple 1640s but noticed newegg only had the 1620 and the DQ60. usually when newegg is out of stock, they still show the product. but i thought maybe the DQ60 was a replacement for the 1640. anyone know?

I looked all over for one and couldn't find it. The 1640 is a good drive. Not sure about the new 1650 though. Just out. I think newegg has them.

thanks again ruger.
i'll look around for the 1640. i hate to go somewhere other than newegg for my hardware (i'm pretty loyal to them) but i might just have to. i didn't see the 1650 on newegg yet and besides, i'd rather go with a drive that everyone seems to have a good experience with rather than be a guinea pig for a new drive.

The only bad think about most ebay sales is that they rape you on the shipping charges. $19.99 to ship a burner from texas. It wouldn't cost $8.00.
I got the RMA to return the DQ60 which I haven't even gotten yet, and reordered a NEC 3550a. I probably should have just stuck with my LG as it is performing flawlessly so far.
Oh well, from what I read the 3550 is a great burner, but a fair reader, so I'll use the lg to read and the 3550 to burn for a while. Glad that I am not strapped for funds or this could be frustrating.

i actually built a computer for my sister and used the NEC drive. seems to work ok, but she doesn't really use it all that much. i have to say, it is very loud when reading.
