Buying a DVD Burner

Why can you only choose from those at staples? I'd probably go with the $179.98 I/O Magic one if you were going to get an external one. The best burners aren't among those listed.
 
These are best brands right now:

NEC

Pioneer

Lite-ON

Plextor

These all work very well.

DVDs are delicate sob's. You can wash them with soap and water though and that fixes some. :)

Should I be aiming for the dual layer or the regular sony one?

bro....get the drive I linked for you. Nevermind the fact that its a dual-layer burner....its at an awesome price ($75) for ANY DVD burner. Check out the reviews for it. Then next year when dual layer burners are burning at 8x or 12x instead of 2x you can replace your drive and not be out of a lot of money....

lol thats the catch.. They have one that has been out for a while.. then they have the new dual layer..
I think the ole Sony would be fine for the casual burner mate.

Pioneers are the best readers and NEC makes the best writers from what I gather but the info changes frequently.

Use good discs....resist the cheapest discs you can find on Ebay and stuff.


Adaptec's Sonic 'Record Now' Deluxe is a snap to use. I am a computer dumb ass and I love that fact.

The software and recording media are important too.


***FED NOTICE***
I make dvd's and copies from the weddings that I do.
 
nice so I guess I will go with the sony one that handles the most version and standards.. although that duallayer is pretty sweet =) How long do they usually take to make? Am I better with external or internal? I prefer internal

Internal is prolly best unless you use a laptop.

The external is basically just an internal slapped into a $40 case.
