I just bought a Lighning V couple days ago,it's a Lite-On as well,Oh it works like the dream,but the price after tax and rebate is 55$ something
campared to newegg's Lite-On 59.99$ without rebate,which one would be considered?

[CignaXI]

59.99+S&H.

[BuddhaTB]

I would go for the Lite-On from Newegg. You don't have to deal with the rebate hassle.

Hey BuddhaTB, I picked up the IO magic Optorite 48x16x48x for $19 after MIR. Is that a decent drive?

I put it into a machine I'm setting up for my wife, and it seemed to write okay, but CD Speed ScanDisc won't work on it!

For $20, it should be a good drive for your wife. I'm pretty sure she won't be burning as many CD's as you would. To really see how your drive performs, I would burn some CD's and use CD Doctor or WSES to test for C1/C2 errors. As for the CD Speed Scan Disc problem, have you tried updating Nero to version 5.5.10.7? Try that and see if that solves your problem. But overall, any CD-RW drive for $20 is a pretty good deal if the drive works for you and produces quality burns. I'm still curious as to what drive you got. Any model #'s on the drive itself? What does the front faceplate look like? Just look through the reviews on 48x16x48 CD-RW drives and maybe you'll find a drive that looks just like yours.

It's an Optorite CW4802. I'm actually using Nero 5.5.10.7b on it, which writes perfectly. Here's the a picture of the drive:

I really like the looks of the front versus the plain Jane Lite-On's, but it's what's inside that really counts!

[BuddhaTB]

If your happy with the performance and quality of the drive, then there should be no complaints on a $20 CD-RW drive. You could do a lot worse, so overall you got a good deal. I'm happy that you like your new CD burner.

FYI if you add $10.01 of merchandise to the DVD writer, you can use the $50 off $250 online coupon. That brings the total to $200 before the $40 MIR. Check www.ultimatecoupons.com for the coupon link.
