    I have a Dell Laptop and want to add a DVD burner (External). I have read the forum and narrowed it down to Plextor-716, Pioneer-108, or NEC 3520.

    Anyone think any of these better for laptops? Also thinking of buying one in box that will use USB2.0 as well as 1394 Firmware. Any thoughts on this?

    Found a site HTCnetstore - any thoughts on this vendor?

    Last question is with boxes utilizing USB2.0 and 1394 Firmware they give you a choice of which chipset to order with. Either the Prolofic PL-3507 or a Combo Oxford 9ET 11a plus Cypress ATZ. Which works the best? If burning at slow speed is the 1394 availability worth the extra bucks?

    Thanks for your response and suggestions. Dont want to make a mistake I am a newbie buying my first DVD burner.

    Sorry for the long post but have alot of questions.

    Anyone Please Respond - I know this may seem trivial to most but to me it is important.

    Thanks in advance.
