Sonys DRU-820A DVD Multi Drive features DVD-RAM recording, which makes it one of the most versatile drives around. It writes Double Layer DVD+R media at 16x and DVD-RAM at 5x. It also burns CDs at a speedy 48x. The estimated street price is less than $100 and that includes the award-winning Nero 6.6 authoring software. A nice touch for owners of black PCs: it includes a black faceplate that can be used to replace the standard office-white equipment. Hewlett-Packard has the dvd840i, which writes to all types of blank media at speeds up to 16x. This HP is a favorite because it offers maximum available specifications, plus the LightScribe direct disc-labeling system. You can easily label your DVDs and CDs with graphics and text that are burned right into the disk surface. With an estimated street price of $99, its hard to beat. An external version (dvd840e) is also available. |
