Found this at Newegg:

59.99 for an 8x burner.... sounds too good to be true. Is the maker any good, I am all about a low price but not at the expense of quality....

So i am thinking of buying this:

Even looked at this:

I have internal and external NEC burners... They seem good to me, and have a strong rep online...

What about a 16x +/- for $72ish - and they have 8x +/- NEC for $62!!

Hmmmm..... that plextor has me thinking. Notice all the other drives had a 2MB buffer, and the Plextor has an 8MB buffer.

I bought a NEC 2500a not too long ago from newegg for some where around $70. There is a firmware upgrade out there to convert it to a dual layer burner. I did the upgrade but since there is no dual layer media available yet I have not been able to check to see if it does actually burn dual layer now. Anyway I have been very happy with the NEC burner.

(You can get the older 2510 that's 8x for less)

I picked up one of those NEC's last week, been working great for me, no chance to try out the dual layer though

To my knowledge there is no dual media available yet. If there is I would like to know where to get it.
