DVD Burner

[Rostum]

What's a good DVD burner that's internal? I don't really know much about them. I'd prefer a black one to go with my case.

Find one that fits your needs, then look up the prices for your local/internet dealers.
Otherwise, the NEC burners are quite good too, I use this at the moment:

I'll sell you my external one cheap. ;)

BTW, I live in Australia for cheap postage. =P

Thanks, though I can't seem to find much Plextor around Australian online stores.

Though I did find a nice and cheap Samsung (http://www.techbuy.com.au/products/67559/DVD_Writers_-_Internal/Samsung/SH-S182D_RSBN/SH-S182D_Black_Internal_DOUBLE_Layer_18x_DVD%B1RW_Drive_12x_DVD-RAM_8x_%B1R_DL_-_Black.asp). Is this an alright one to get? All I know is I have an extra bay on my computer, so I'm guessing I just put it in there and connect it on the inside?

Or there's this LG (http://www.i-tech.com.au/products/953_LG_GSA_H22LBBK_18___DUAL_LAYER_DVD_WRITER.aspx) one that looks interesting.

Edit: I don't want an external one, sorry. And I'd rather buy factory sealed anyways.

You could always check how the users opinion goes at places like cdfreak: http://www.cdfreaks.com/devices/DVD__RW/ or try to get ahold of Squally, he's usually more up to date with what's good and what's bad.

I have that LG burner. It's very inexpensive, and I've never had a problem with it. I was going to get one more expensive, but the guy in the store recommended it, so I got it.

I recommend it too. :p

I strongly discourage getting plextors. They cost far more than the usual drive and are less reliable compared to other drives I've used.

I've used between 10-15 NEC and Pioneer drives in computers recently, and they've been working out well.
LG has some well-rated drives as well.

All the Plextors I've ever used were as reliable as could be :p That said, my NECs have been good too, and are usually reasonably priced.

Thanks guys. I've ordered the LG one. =)
