I had to replace my DVD-ROM drive as it was dying, and opted for the Pioneer DVD +-R/RW drive. I will using the drive primarily to backup my digital photographs (and eventually to create DVD's - but that's a ways off).

The drive comes with Nero 6 (OEM), several Ulead programs, and WriteDVD from SAI. For the purposes of backing up my photos, is WriteDVD o.k. to use, or would anyone suggest anything else?

FYI, I've used Roxio 6 with some success (including Drag to Disk) and also have the full version of Nero 6.

Would appreciate any input/suggestions.

Thanx!

Drag to Disc works fine with DVD/RW as does the rest of the ECDCD Suite.
