On the topic of jumpers and settings: I recommend only setting one of them to region 4, so that you can use the other drive for imports (I have my "spare" drive set to region 1). |

| 618359 | 2007-12-06 23:03:00 | We are putting together a new computer, and were considering to have two DVD writers. We've already chosen one which is a Pioneer DVR-212BK 18x We were recommended to have a second one that is different, but I'm not quite sure which brands are best to go for. Any ideas? Have you considered just putting in DVD Burner for now with provision for Blu-Ray or HD-DVD at a later date? Also I concur with the others Seagate HDD. Possibly look at the Seagate website and check the ES models. Very little difference in price to the Desktop models but since they are Enterprise Models you might expect a longer life. 5 Yr Warranty which is probably the same with desktop models. |
