      Thanks!

      I have a Plextor 708A,and Benq 800A.

      Plextor pros..

      Nice quiet drive.Good with cdr copy protections(audio&video).Good dvd-r copies.Ability to write dvd+r at faster speeds (8X on selected 4X discs).Very reliable drive.

      Plextor cons...

      No dvd+r bitsetting.Very slow access (disc recognition times).

      Benq pros...

      Ability to hack firmware (mine is 800 @ 822A).DL firmware support to be released in September.Dvd+r bitsetting.Good quality write strategy to dvd+r using bitsetting,and most medias.Fast access times.

      Benq cons...

      Dvd-r written quality could be better.Slow cdr write speeds(24X).Poor cdr for backing up protected game discs.

      That ole fart, media hater Sony DRU-500a... but with the right media it's a real champ, AND an extremely good ripper of both CD's and DVD's, I will replace it only when DVD-9 toasters get mature.

      I have the Optorite DD0401 (FW 150E) great drive. Only use ritek media and burn with burnatonce (.99b) and they play on everything. I've been meaning to try ProdiscS03 but at the moment I have a stock pile of ritek. Never burn cds with it thats what the liteon (LTR-523227S) for and as far as ripping goes thats what the other liteon is for (XJ-HD166S).
