Which one is a better all rounder? I heard the Pioneer 216 is not as good as the 215 and the NEC 7200S uses same chip as the 215 so basically perform the same...any comment? Tia

The Pioneer is the faster of the two but the NEC has better quality if you don't factor in Pioneer's Optimum Write Speed technology.

Thanks, I ordered the NEC since I never had a NEC before and want to fry it and I read it can handle most DVD-R quite well, I have the LG GH22 which handle DVD+R well, so I think I am ok until one of them breaks...thanks again. BTW, I don't burn any media faster than 8X...at most 12X so speed is not really matters me.

Both are good ones, but the 216 need a bit time to be as good as the 215
