Pioneer DVR-2910 Internal SATA DVD/CD Writer 20X, Black

This drive works as advertised. sturdier than the drive that came with the computer. The E-SATA connections couldn't be any easier. No having to figure out and deal with the jumpers was a nice surprise. Just plug it in and turn the computer on.

This is a great DVD drive. It is fast and does what I needed it too. It did not come with a SATA cable so your going to have to buy one, it came with some software, but it pretty much was useless. I opted for my own software. I did like the burn DVD, CD software that it included; however my MOBO had better software included in its package.

Pros: Quiet when operating (can't hear it at all over my PC fans). Works at speeds advertised. Works with every media I've tried it with so far (multiple brands of CD-R's, DVD-R's, and DVD-RW's). Not a single bad burn so far. Reads all CDs and DVDs so far with no problems.

Cons: Somewhat slow to spin up upon first inserting a disc. Eject button on the front is extremely flimsy, so much so that I feel I need to be careful not to bust it off whenever I press it. Very lightweight compared to my old one, which makes me wonder how cheap the internal parts are, however doesn't seem to be an issue so far based on experience.
