  1. I am looking for a SATA DVD writer, LG H62L or H62N. Both come with Remesas chip which is good.

    I know the "L" model has Lightscribe. Can I assume that other than Lightscribe, the rest (write quality, read speed, etc) will be the same?

    Most of my burnings will not deploy Lightscribe but since the two are now the same price, I would take the H62L, right?

    I have the SATA LG-H62L which burns great, it was actually my first LG dvd burner. You can't go wrong with either drive. I don't do lightscribe since that process takes at least 20- 30 min. to do. Both drives are identical as far as hardware w/the exception of the lightscribe technology.

    The SAMSUNG SATA dvd burners especially the S203B model is the best burner on the market right now as far as SATA goes. Make sure you check the SATA CHIPSET CONTROLLER on you motherboard because there are incompatible chipsets such as JMICRON, VIA & NVIDIA that can cause the drive to not work correctly. INTEL chipsets have no problems w/SATA dvd burners. From my experience using the latest NVIDIA drivers can work with SATA drives. Make sure RAID is disabled in your motherboard bios, if you're running a RAID system then you'll have to buy a SATA PCI CONTROLLER CARD that has the SILICON IMAGE 3112/3114 chipsets.

  3. Are you serious? The Lightscribe process takes 20-30 minutes?

  5. So, I will take H62N.

    Why extra electronics if I will never use it...

    For graphics in best quality, yeah. I've only done a single ring of text, which took like five minutes .
