dunno about the brands u mentioned
but u can get LG and be tension free coz there after sale service is good
else u can buy a bit pricey HP writer which wont give u problems for 3-4 years

you really want to believe that? :shock:
we buy optical drives for accessing and burn optical media. If the lens' efficiency is reduced by its only operation, what's the point of its existence???

no that's not true. :smile:
