Two models of BenQ 1640 ? "B" and "G"
| BenQ / Philips Writer Discuss, Two models of BenQ 1640 ? "B" and "G" at CD and DVD Writers forum; There is now a second model of the BenQ mentioned in the Benq Download Center . You can find a firmware update for the "B" and for the "G" series. Most people (including me) seem to have the "B" model - does anyone know the differences to the new "G" |

| The G version is for OEM drives. There are no other differences.

| More interesting question is, can you convert OEM into RETAIL, just like with 1620? |
| ehh, what's the point if the only difference is the added software and cardboard box ? |
| Because other companies re-brand the drives as their own and sell them on. |

| Hello! Maybe it is a little offtopic, but is the Benq 1640 also avaible from Philips? I´m looking for a new drive and I don´t like the ugly Benq-design

| I don't think that they are the same models because if you look at the firmware update description it is different between the retail and the oem |
| if you dont like the benq design, go qith the new plextor

| Hello! If the price of the 740 is fair, perhaps. But is it avaible in black?
