Works good Looks good for what it is.


Just install and you're ready to go. Built well...Quiet (as quiet as any other optical)...Burns consistent (not one coaster yet). In other works, it just works...as an optical should.


Lite On is amazing as ever... I won't use anything else. For those not too tech savvy, simply plug it in and reboot. Nothing else needed. Works fine with every operating system out there.



I cannot predict when or whether ever this drive will quit on me because eventually almost all do. It depends on so many variables: How much use, dust in the environment or on the media, flaky power supply and accidents all play a role. This drive is reasonably priced and works as advertised. LITE-ON branded burners have been around for a long time so it is reasonable to expect that they will work and will last. Most of the other good ratings are valid and you should read them. I have but one comment to add to the torrent of verbiage: Get in the habit of using the burner’s button to open and close the tray and make certain the disk(s) are clean and properly placed on the tray before inserting.
