    hey everybody, new to the forum and looking for any suggestions. I really don't know much about burners or just computers in general. I am looking at buying a dvd burner soon and don't want to spend a fortune. I know internal burners are cheaper but I would really prefer an external burner for my new laptop. What do I need to look at spending for an external burner of decent quality. What else can you tell me that would be helpful when I look for burners. Brands, speed, etc. Thanks a lot.

    Have to agree with BJ on LiteON drives, they have served me well over the years.

    But also what is your budget for the burner?

    I also once you see a burner you like do a little bit of googling to find some reviews on the drive, basically see what other users think of them, if buying online then use one of the larger e-retailers or if not in the USA, then maybe some of us may know good reliable e-retailers in your area.
