Anyone tried this one out? I have a giftcard for wal-mart and saw this one. For $50 i think it's a steal! What do you all think? Thanx

These are the negative conclusions from the internal version of the same drive.

CD-R media compatibility could be further improved.
Awful DVD+/-RW writing quality.
Only 24x CD-RW writing speed, and writing quality needs to be improved too.
Only 32x CD-RW reading speed.
Very low DVD+/-RW reading speed of only 6x.
Only 8x reading of all double layer media types.
DVD-writing quality with certain 16x media could be improved.
Doesn?t support 6x/8x DVD-R DL.
Doesn?t support any current DVD+R DL discs at 8x speed.
Doesn?t set DVD+R/RW/R DL media to DVD-ROM booktype as default.
Doesn?t support ?overspeeding? media (Writing media at higher speeds than what it is certified for).


Here are the positives:

Overall good specifications.
Very good DVD-media support as almost every disc is supported at certified speed.
Very good CD-Writing quality.
Very good DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL writing quality.
Very good retail package that includes extra black front bezel.
Excellent audio extraction capabilities.
Fast CD-Reader.
Reads DVD+/-R at 16x.
No riplock for reading DVD-Video discs.
Supports bitsetting for DVD+R/RW/R DL, but needs to be enabled.
Good error testing capabilities.
Good community support and many 3rd party programs that works with the drive.
Supports reading/writing 99 minute CD-R media.
Good drive for backing up protected PC games.
