For the price, this DVD drive was definitely worth it. It gets the job done, and, while a bit noisy at times, is very reliable. Having upgraded to this from some ancient IDE drives... I'm able to appreciate the difference a good bit.

I bought this about 3 months ago and recently it had gone to crap and stopped reading dvd's. I try to update the firmware and it fails to recognize this drive. It has also always been on the loud side. Now it needs to be replaced, too short of a life in my mind. Makes me wonder if it was a fluke or if all Lite-on products will fail shortly after installation.

I got this drive and put in my computer and it did not work. Put another drive in and it worked fine. Probably just a bad on so I bought another one. The one for $34.99. Compusa took it back with no problems. Hope My new one works. Will find out soon.
