My Dog was in my room & Tray of my DVD-Writer was out.
The damn Dog hit the tray so badly that it stopped working.
On Enquiry regarding repair of tray , My Vendor insisted on buying a new 1 as Warranty of this DVD-Writer was gone.

Buggy? May be they used to. But they both have nice products. And the latest ones have absolutely no issues. Costly?? Both have DVD writers available for 1.1K ! :p

CS22 from Sony. 20B1ST from Asus. I am using the Asus one. Working nice as of now.

Sony & Asus DVD writers are wrost one. Never buy those. They're not buggy but just bad & Asus offers the worst support for ODD drives.

I had that 20BIST Model & to get a working one what kind of hassle I had to face :
