Rustynuts Posted March 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Funny that, because I've just spent the afternoon trying to locate a firmware or driver update for the Optiarc (Sony Nec) drive, and couldn't find anything. That was my first plan of attack but apparently it's a secret... I'm sure Pioneer will be fine, they've been recommended before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'd not touch Pioneer. Had far too many fail. Samsung and LiteON are very good and quiet too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Well, Pioneer turned up this afternoon, took the Optiarc out and installed the new one. Burned first time with no problems. Optiarc ain't all that good as far as I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
