Unfortunately, I have to admit that I like the drive quite a bit. If friends
ask me for recommendations, and don't want to spend enough for a Plextor, I
usually mention the Lite-On. The good news is that it can be bought on the
net for about $90, and at Best Buy under the Buslink brand, thus
sidestepping Creative altogether.
