http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=manufactory&catalog=5&manufactory=116...tby=14&order=1

i want to know what's the different between those drives. Why is the model# different. which one should i get?

Get the cheap one unless you know that the bundled sofware in the retail
version is worth the price.

you did not answer my question. i want to know the differences between those burner. are they same or what? why is it different model numbers in newegg.com and difference prices

Looks like they've got it wrong on their descriptions. The A06 is the retail version and comes with a couple of blank disks and software that you may or may not need, the 106 is the OEM version of the same drive. The OEM comes in a plain box and that is your lot, no screws, disks, software, etc. The BK on the end of either number, signifies a black front panel.

As FOO said, unless you have a great desire or need for a shiny box and the bundled software, get the cheapest.

Excuse me your highness.
At this point I really don't give a rats ass what the hell you want.

FOO, if you read it, he asked three questions, you only answered the last one. If you don't give a rats ass what he wants, why bother posting?

I strongly agree with you!

I bought the Pioneer DVR-106D from www.avlogic.com for $159 shipped. Its the oem version of the A06. As people are stating if you want a nice retail box and software and stuff buy the 229$ one if not buy the 106d. Not sure what the A06u is but according to the site its the oem version of the drive meaning no software. The one with the bk at the end means black faced,

because that's the type of person he is, a flamer and he just can't help himself

i think i should i get a DVR-106BK $164.99 with the black faced one....it looks nice and all .....but $164.99 is kindda expensive for me ...any cheap website with black faced?

[sparker366]

That is going to be the cheapest you will find it. I looked for 3 days for the best price on that drive and what I posted was the lowest price I could find. I should have gotten a black face one for my system but opted to get a beige one cause of the price.
