Samsung is a big no-no.
AFAIK, Sony DRU820A is good.

People here keep telling Sony is the best cause they havent heard of/used Pioneer personally. I had a CD ROM long back and it was great. Now a member, Shiva007 I think has it and it was surely better than Sony man, worth the extra price as its not popular in India.

About models am not sure cause we only get ASUS drives at my location, not exact Pioneer drives. But it is definitely the way to go.

pioneer makes great products, and its DVD writer will surely live up to its rep.

I would say "stay away" from sony. Their warranty is crap (if you ever need it). Better be safe. And yeah a sony can *never* match the quality of a pioneer.

Well pioneer drives are grea argeed but what if something goes wrong? How many service centres are there compared to Sony? That's one thing to consider, IMO.

Dont buy SamSung DVD Writer!!! Sony DRU 820A is a very good product. Mine is
Sony DRU 820A. I'm using it for the past 8 months without any problems. I have not
tested Pioneer. It maybe good. But I don't have any Pioneer service center in my place!!
So, if you want to buy a Pioneer DVD writer, first check whether you have any Pioneer
Service centers in your place!!

Yes, Pioneer may be better or even best which can justify the cost. But what about support and even more important, availability?
