Hi,
Plenty of burners at $49 bucks (Canadian), I recommend NEC, Sony or Pioneer - avoid LG.
Great addition to your P3, no worries :^)
Don't really need to put a Plextor in there, but nice new inexpensive burner will work okay.
Keep in mind that your PC will not support 16x DVD throughput; will be hard-pressed to do 8x; should burn 4x (on 8x blanks) just fine.
Even just reading discs or burning CDs, you will notice the good performance!
Regards
