S203D/P or S223F/Q [which one to choose?]

[alienrex]

I'm in the progress of buying new DVD writter. I own BENQ1640 but need new one for second system.

I need good and reliable DVD+DL and DVD+R burner. I don't burn CD's much. I tought SATA is a way to go now. I went into the local shop and there they have Samsungs: S203D (for 20€), S203P (24€), S223F (21€) and S223Q (24€). Which one of those would you recommend? If there is another type (brand) You thin it's better, please specifiy it. I heard NEC's (optiarcs) are not good these days, there is no more Benq.

I have 5 203B’s they are great and the Optiarc’s 72xx are pretty good too! I do not care much for the 223 sammys. Be a real freak and buy both:flower:.

I forgot to add: it has to be also good reader.

One is enough… Will check alsp Optiarcs 72xx series.

One more vote for the 720xS much better burner than my 203D.

Go for a Optiarc 720xS or a Pioneer DVR-215/216.
These are the best burners out there.

Today I ordered NEC Optiarc 7203S.
