Is the Samsung External DVD writers any good?

[Hibiki04]

Can anyone advise me if the Samsung SE-S164L External DVD writers are any good in burning quality?
Or am I better off choosing a Lite-On or LG Ext DVD Burner?

From my experiences, Samsung is about on par with Lite-On as far as writing quality goes. If that's whats important to you, the LG might be the way to go.

Definately LG. LG drives aren't exactly my first choice, but they're miles ahead of Samsung IMO.
