Ian,please do a review for benq4816p

i just got this drive when i bought a verbatim and i tested it against my LITEON 48125W and the ACER BENQ4816P beat it by 8 seconds! that can't be right and since your more of a expert than I, you can do a more accurate test than i can. By the way, i only burn cdrs from burner to harddrive back to burner NOT disc to disc for quality purposes.

Firmware boost? Is there one for Liteon LTR-12101B

I had seen firmware updates that can be used to to increase the speed of the burner such as 16x10x40 to 24x10x40. Does any one know if there is a firmware update that will work for the LTR-12101b 12x10x32 that will increase it to a 16x?

Cyberdrive DM168 16x48x dvd rom drive.

The drive was also RPC1 region free by default, dvd rom region info verified this and nero info tool.

So, all bonuses there I decided to try out the noise level on dvd and cd roms as my old pioneer slot ...

Retail Kits or Bare Drives?

I've recently been looking at DVD/CD-RW combo drives for my black PC. At the time I looked it was only possible to get Toshiba drives with black fascias in the UK and then only from one online retailer, Scan International.

Anyway so I finally try and now it won't burn anything. I've tried using both Roxio's cd creator and Nero but neither one will burn anything. They both say that the cd writing process is ...
