I'm looking at this one: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Produ...82E16827187033

Decently priced, plus it has that cool looking lightscribe thingy.

Anybody here have, or know of, a decent DVD-9/dual layer DVD burner? My current DVD-5/Single layer is, well... DVD-5/single layer, and it's a pain to keep compressing stuff to fit it from a DVD-9 to a DVD-5.

So, yeah. Good ones? [Obviously] preferably without breaking the bank.

well if you dont want to break the bank I suggest you not buy a dual layer yet. Sure the drives are priced cheap enough BUT your looking at about $7 or $8 dollars a disk for the cheap ones if you buy them in bulk of 50-100.

I personally am going to wait for the disk prices to drop. By that time I will get twice the drive for the same or less price. I currently have a Plextor 708A and can burn a full dvd at 8X in about 5-6 minutes.

just a though

if you just have to have one I would suggest the plextor-716A Great drive, getting even greater reviews. And if nothing has changed in the last two or so weeks its the fastest drive in single and double layer burning(actual burn times)
