I'd go for the original drive (20A1P in this case) instead of the rebadged version for the faster firmware updates. The only reason to buy a DW2000, in my opinion, is if you just can't let "BenQ" die just yet.

Had it not been for the BenQ QSuite i would have straightaway gone and bought the LiteOn. I just wanna know is it worth buying this BenQ model for the QSuite advantage?

LiteOn's SmartBurn utility is very similar to QSuite: Online HyperTuning = WOPC, HyperTuning = SolidBurn.
The LiteOn has OverSpeed, booktype setting to the EEPROM, and pretty much anything else you can think of in QSuite.

I c. thank u mate.
Anyways a few minutes back i contacted the local BenQ dealer and found out that the last BenQ writer available here(India) was the DW1800. And that was 3 months back. After that BenQ has not launched any writer here and nor are earlier models like DW1800 in stock. Truly BenQ writers are doing the vanishing act.
Thankfully LiteOn writers are available. The latest LiteOn available here is LH-20A1H. Barring Sony no other DVD writer mfg. co. launches SATA writers here. Dunno y.

The DH-20A3H was just announced, but it might be a while until you can get your hands on it. The LH-20A1H is a fine drive, though.
