Pros:
good quality burning even with cheap media. |
|
|

Cons:
some incompatibilty problems with some DVD MID codes, questionable scanning capabilities, and some large error spikes with Verbatim 16X DVD-R media. i had this drive for long enough now... it has many cons, including some problems with specific MID codes, like DVD-Rs with codes from LONGTEN001, SKC Co. Ltd. and AN31 [SAST Digital Optical Discs Co.,Ltd.]..
and having some other questionable scanning abilities, it shows a large amount of PIEs than the 3540A used to show... and too far beyond the "average" scanning limit.. but still convinient in PIF scanning...
CD writing speed and quality are ok...
error correction for the drive is not that great, the BenQ DW-1640 wins over this one... many damaged DVD's or scratchy Audio CDs fail to read without errors... unlike the BenQ or Lite-On readers...
but for writing DVDs, one GRAND problem is an Ugly spike that shows ALWAYS while writing on Verbatim's 16X DVD-Rs, eventhough the disc is still readable with no real problems, but still, the spike leaves an unansewred question about the durability of the disc anyway...
this drive is better for use with low quality/cheap media, either DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW... and it has a great quality when used on some Low quality DVD-RWs...
in overall... the drive is OK... it has some problems... but it's an ok/average burner...
