Just plug it in and use it!November 29, 2008 In less than twenty minutes after it was removed from the shipping box the drive was inside my old HP desktop quietly doing its thing. Windows Me installed it immediately and there have been no problems running live CD Linux (Knoppix, Puppy, and Ubuntu). I've watched three commercial DVD movies, one home-made CD movie, and have burned over two dozen ISO Linux disks without any bad writes since it was installed a few weeks ago. The LightScribe feature has not been tested because of the cost of disks. I would not hesitate to buy another Lite-On product. Jim D
Dead on ArrivalNovember 8, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought 1 of this model from Amazon.com with free super saver shipping. It wasn't the fastest way to ship but hey it's free. As soon as it arrived, I installed the unit and it didn't work. Windows XP could not detect the drive; worse, it affected the other existing drive in my PC coz even that can't be detected. I tried all the Windows tricks I know using control panel but to no avail. This unit has to go. So, I went back online and got an RMA from Amazon.com requesting for a full refund. I like Amazon.com, where I buy most of my electronics. This is one of the rare occasions where the product failed the first time. If you look at the reviews, 7 out of time rate this model 5 stars. I guess that translates to 70% quality. I'd rather get a 100% quality product. Now, I'm back on the search.
Rating: Amazon.com - 5 stars (free shipping and back shipping) Lite-on DH-20A4P-08 - 0 stars (oops! 1 is the loewst)
SurpisedOctober 23, 2008 I got the DVD-RW that was fine but what do you do with one that have no disk with it.no programs to do anything with?
Expectations met!October 14, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this unit to replace a CD drive so my daughter could install and play her games on an older computer. The drive arrived new in the box and works as expected. We don't use it very much for burning DVDs or CDs but its been working perfectly so far doing everything else.
Excellent!September 15, 2008 This DVD-RW Drive arrived before the date specified, in new condition, installed easily, worked the first time and every time since. It came with additional software and items - that was a surprise. This is a good investment for anyone looking for an inexpensive and quality DVD RW Drive. I plan on buying more of them when finances allow (I'm a student and finances are minimal).
