Howdy: I'm in the market for a low cost DVD burner and Newegg has
these two burner on sale today for the same price.

Lite-On 1693S
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827106988

Pioneer 110DBK
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827129164

Either one for $40USD plus free shipping. Which unit do you folks
think is the most dependable unit? I'm not a 'power' burner. It would
just be for the occasional back up and to copy a DVD to keep the
original safe.

Thanks for any input.

Makes bad CD burns unless burn at 24x. And their tech support is worse
than worthless.

Why don't you wait for a sale on NEC or LG?

I'm very happy with my external LiteOn. I didn't get any burner software

when I bought my computer, so the RecordNow software was a welcome bonus. I
imagine either one will perform well.

I've got 8 LiteOns, with no complaints. Including the one your
considering. LiteOn normally updates their firmware regularly to
improve their burners. I wasn't happy with my one pioneer and
gave it away.
