Hello All
I was thinking of buying a Benq DW1640 DVD Burner within the next day or two and i was wondering what other people thought of it. Am i wasting my money, or are there other good burners out there that anyone else can recommend.
Any input would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

It's nice to be important,but it's more important to be nice.....
Equally good to Plextor PX-740 (factly: the same drive) and costing about half! So, it can't be a bad drive at all... I prefer NEC drives, but this is (partly) subjective.
Of course your BenQ can't utilize the fine program named Plextools, but PX-740 cannot fully utilize it, either (should we call it "not-a-real-Plextor"?).

The revolution cannot be a lever, or an essay, or tablaeu, or embroidery. It cannot proceed mellowly, piece-by-piece, gently, devoutly, simply and humbly.

I gather this drive is also rebadged as the Philips 8701 - which i now have due to it being in my new comp !
I am tempted to flash it to the Benq, but wonder if its worth it ?
A penny saved is ridiculous.
Great drive I have one.
Think about it to date that was the only way plextor could may a good Dvd burner is to use someone else is.
Good luck.
I finally went for the benq and so i far i haven't looked back. I have no regrets about it. All the DL stuff that i have done and no problems. Great burner.
