Is the Liteon DVD/CD-RW combo Drive works as fast as......

[ckang007]

Is the Liteon DVD/CD-RW combo Drive works as fast as the stand alone Liteon 16x DVD drive (LTD-165/166 or 163). I used to have a LTD 163 and I really liked it but my friend broke the tray when i was ejecting a disc and he walked passed by. I will like to get the Black DVD/CD-RW one this time but not sure if it works as well since i do cd to cd copy and the old one works great. I have a liteon 48x24x48 cd-rw drive and will like to know how fast is the on-the-fly speed with this DVD/CD-RW combo drive.

Thanks
