If I remember right, Emprex uses BTC drives.

Hello!

BTC = trash

Don´t buy it, if you want burning readable media. I don´t think it´s cheap. What other drives you have to chioce?
Benq DW 1640 and 1650 , Plextor PX-755, Pioneer BDR-208 and 209D, LG GH24NSC0, LG BH16NS40 and 16NS55, Liteon ihas 124F and 324F, Pioneer DVR-215 and S21, Samsung SH-224DB and 224GB, and some more

I agree with Scour, I was using BTC for one week and I had nothing but aggravation. Try to stay away from it, I am sure for the same price you can buy top rated burner from newegg.com then you don’t have to bother with BTC one..

I don't agree with you. I've used the BTC for a long time without getting wrong. It May be my good luck, but real.

Maybe Jack Lee used the media, that the BTC loves. But you don´t hace a big choice, almost all other writers could do better with more media.
