DVD/CD Burner: Pioneer 108

Any DVD-ROM will do really, get something like a LiteOn, shouldn't matter much if you pick any decent manufacturer :)

I concurr on the Pioneer108 as the best all-around burner. If you want the best money can buy look at the Plextor712.

As for a CDRW drive, some very nice drives:
- ASUS 522452/523252
- Liteon SOHR5238S (52x32x52)
Are the two best all-around drives

Again, Plextor Plexwriter Premium takes the top crown but at a significantly improved price

1. Sony burners are ok ... their main flaw is that they are too expensive for their performance and feature set (and there is a distinction between the two)

2. Dual layer is [a] overrated IMO and even if its not its way overpriced and [c] damn near nobody knows how to do a good job with it :(

You got one good entry in there.... care to guess which one? ;)

Well its pretty much limited to Plextor ... and for the prices of these good non-plextor drives ... i.e., cheaper/same as the rest ... theres not much excuse not to get a good solid drive. Of course getting a fancy Plextor is a waste if the user doesnt know how to use all those fancy features
