So what is the quietest dvd burner right now. Since I have my dvd burner mounted in a custom hutch on my desk, I need a really quiet drive to replace the noisy one I currently have. Burn times are still important, but I am willing for burn times to take a small hit for lower sound levels.
 
I would guess that generally the more expensive the drive the better quality of the build and thus maybe quieter operation? I would just start looking at the more expensive drives and read the reviews. Hopefully someone will mention something about its noise level.
 
my sony drive is very quiet, I wouldn't get Lite-On, while they are very good drives, i've had two and they are loud.

you can choose the burn speed to run at in your software. they usually have a quiet/slow burning choice. as for light scribe being louder ima go check it out now.
