What Other Items Do Customers Buy After Viewing This Item?
Bought this DVD rewriter/drive for my home build as realised I needed a SATA drive as the old IDE one would not fit my new motherboard. Well I must say Im most impressd with the drive, quiet and works great. Not tried writing to it yet but should be fine. For just over £13 I dont know how they do it at Samsung, with 3 interchangable fronts to suit black, white or silver PC even loading flaps coloured to suit. Also sata cable, screws and disc with drivers included a great bargin, if I could give 10 stars I would.

Received the item well before estimated date. Well packaged and all extras included. Worked straight out of the box. Very quiet. Have not burned DVDs yet but will update if things don't work as expected.

This DVD drive is not the first one I have had installed in my tower. My previous drive was the previous version of this model but it had recently become faulty; refusing to play many DVDs, some of which were fresh from the boxes, so I knew it wasn't an issue with the discs themselves.
This replacement arrived today and the installation was easy enough. It comes with a SATA cable to connect to your motherboard in case you don't already own one (for example, if you're building a tower and considering this as your drive), but it doesn't have a power cable. Luckily for me, I simply used my existing cable.
Anyway, installation was simple - my computer automatically found and installed the drivers without having to use the included installation disc, and it immediately played all of the DVDs that my old drive could not. It is also extremely quiet as advertised.
I haven't tried burning anything as of yet and I've only been using this drive for about 10 hours at the time of this review, so if anything should occur to tarnish my opinion of the drive, I'll return and alter this review but for now I am extremely satisfied with the product, and would definitely recommend it.

Very good Drive it works straight out of the box and also comes with trail software and four screws and Sata cable and two extra face plates once install Windows 7 64 bit install the drivers. I haven't tried to play any DVD movies yet but I think it should be ok. I have done some burning with this drive using Aone plus+ dual layer disc 8.5GB and it works fine looking for up to date drives it comes under http://www.samsung.com/fr/consumer/it/optical-disk/internal-dvd-writer/SH-224DB/RSMS?subsubtype=dvd-drive if you are English you will have to translate using Google has the language it's in French or you can use this website http://www.tsstodd.com/eng/ for drivers and Firmware up dates I haven't done any up dates as it's working fine if I do the up dates it might cause problems as it's not broken just leave it alone. I also did a write review of this Drive which is now going back Lite-On IHAS124-04 - LiteOn IHAS124-04 - 24x SATA DVDRW HH Internal Drive - Black have a read not Good for burning Dual Layer discs..

I am using this DVD writer with Windows 8.1. Its comes with a disc with various software such as Power2Go and trial versions of Nero and various other software including a firmware updater. None of the software is essential and these days WIndows 8.1 has built in capabilities to burn discs so this DVD writer is effectively plugin and play and requires no setup. Its a SATA DVD Writer so just needs a power cable to be connected from the PSU and a free SATA port and cable. Its comes with a sata cable and a black,silver and white bezel so you can make it match the colour of your base unit. As far as performance goes it is quieter than the LG DVD writer its replacing and has been reasonably reliable at burning discs at 24 x ( I say reasonable because its has burnt a few "coasters"). I found burning ISO's to disc no problem using this DVD writer. Its not expensive and so far appears to be good value for money.

I got the drive installed it onto my Dell Precision 2006 desktop PC running Windows 7, which I have been upgrading overtime. Came with all necessary items, sata cable, screws manual and cd. The drive is pretty much a plug and play, install it, turn your computer on and there you have it! The disk that's included can give you some free trials and a version of Nero free edition, you will also get 2 extra bezels but I only needed black since the front of my PC is black. It burns disks very fast without noise, it will come out very good quality with no errors on the disk. I really like it and its a great component to have on my PC as my old CD ROM couldn't burn to disks and it ran on IDE, it was quite old.
So overall it's a very good drive, good price and I recommend it to other if you are looking for a new drive for your computer.
