O RLY?
A friend of mine had a Pioneer. It was quiet, but he did have some issues with it I believe. Not having had any issues with LG drives, they sit above Pioneer in my books on that basis. Do you not mean Plextor?

I wouldn't recommend Samsung drives, from what I've heard the quality of the burn on the disc is very poor and causes issues with things like standalone DVD players. I'd recommend going with something by LG or Liteon.
Then you heard wrong ask 10 different people and you will get 10 different answers.I have had excellent results with the Samsung 203b.Highly regarded burner with a 91 page thread at cdfreaks that praise this particular burner.

I also get excellent results with the Samsung S-183L's.They all play fine with all my standalone(Philips,Bose321,Pioneer)players.

A byproduct of Starforce? which ill take your word for because i know nothing about Starforce.As far as being destroyed from sliping in PIO mode from read errors than no because i have thousands of burns on my Ben-Q 1640's and when there destroyed it will be from old age and heavy use.

Read errors alone won't kill the drive, that's my point. The starforce software will a) cause read errors and b) kill the drive.

Read errors alone won't kill the drive that was what i was saying.As far as the starforce software never had any dealings with it so it is no concern to me.
As for sliping into PIO mode those days are behind me all my computers are all SATA except one and it wont be runing IDE drive's much longer.
