I've been using liteon and sony for some time now.No probs here. But anyway u cud go for the LG brand, its quite popular and has less probs.

SAMSUNG just tell them to shove it in the trash can.

what are u saying man :

Samsung-Tray probs
LG-probs
Liteon-choosy but my dvd rom is not that bad(though it doesn't read a particular digit or osmething dvd or something)
sony dvd rom is something like liteon

try this :
cd-rw
dvd

dvd-rw
combo

if you have dvd rom/cd-rw already then consider combo from sony(orignal)-if it is fine,if u have another dvd rom then try liteon corrrier,how is benq,cd-rw with them dangerous can sploil cd if cd not handled carefully as due to outer surface of uwards of cd-rw
i haveve one

I know its a bit too late to reply to this ... but JUST in case.. u havent yet bought a combo..I wud recommend u to buy Gigabyte GO-B5232A(i have the same model).
I am tellin u this coz u dont have Lite-on in ur state(Lite on is the no1 when it comes to performance).
But Gigabyte is just a bit behind(then comes LG).
for eg. Lite on takes 2min 30sec to write 700MB disc
Gigabyte writes the same in 2 min 40sec.
My pals ownin samsung writers write the same in 3 min 30 sec atleast.(LG i dont have mcuh info abt its writin).
I hope this helps(and i m not too late).

Default go 4 individual drives

using lite-on not a single problem to face.LG and samsung have tray problems.sony does not supports dvds from all the regions.
it will be better 4 u if u go after individual drives:a dvd rom and a cd rewriter.
dvd rom:benq
cd rewriter:asus
