Using Aopen 40 12 48 - no problems - they all have a warranty, so buy from a reputable source.

While not mentioned in your list.... I use an LG.
It does everthing I want.

I have no opinion regarding the others you list.

I have the LG as well with no regrets or problems. Have had 3 (various speeds) without a problem. The youngest loves it as it is compatible with copy software for backing up his games

Asus over an Aopen.

Liteon the same as Asus.

I've bought 5 Asus writers in the past, and all have been excellent. Currently you can buy an Asus 52X writer for $89 + GST installed.

All writers are much of a muchness, until you ask them to do things such as backing up copy protected CD's etc.... that's when you will notice the differences.

Lo.

I use an LG.

In comparison to 3 others of varying brands the LG seems to be the better unit by far. Well made, quiet, smooth transport mechanism.

Odd man out: I use a Samsung and I am very happy with it. I chose it primarily for the 8MB buffer, but it has excellent build quality and is very quiet in operation.
