I need to install DVD writers in a CentOS box as part of a backup setup. I want as little fuss as possible both with HW recognition and functionality. Can any of you recommend a vendor/product ?
Performance of the drive is not an issue. I get confused looking at all the "+/-RW +R double layer yada yada" when skimming the hardware lists..
No one ever got fired for buying a Plextor. :)
And I disagree with that LiteOn comment. On the upside they are super cheap but the CDRW drive I bought from them years ago couldn't read several types of media. Since then, I only buy Plextor drives and have never been disappointed.
