    Hi all,i am tempted by komplett special on the nec 1300 but wondered if it is any good?Was also looking into buying the lite onLDW811S instead which is a lot faster and can be bought right in ireland trade prices.Which would you recommend seeing as the liteon would be closer to €200 but burns at 8 speed.regds kmb:rolleyes:

    The NEC isn't great in terms of compatibility with media especially cheaper media.

    Pioneer A06 is good.

    Look at blankdiscshop.co.uk

    A06 for about 150 inc delivery.

    Did you have to stay at home to receive your DVD burner?
    Was it delivered by Courier or post?
    If you had not been at home, where could you have collected the drive from???

    I ask this because I plan to buy the same burner from the same people.

    Cheers

    What about the LG multi-format 4x drive? It's about €145 including delivery at Jescomputers.de

    Hi McGintyMcGoo,
    I had it delivered to my workplace..
    It was courier delivered, so I'd suggest you do the same..
    You can add a multitude of delivery addresses to your DABS account..
