So what is the dvd-rom drive to buy at this moment ?
get the AOpen 1648/AAP it leaves the Toshiba in the dust.
ok i want to buy the AOpen 1648/AAP but where can i find it in France or Europe ?
You are talking about the 1648/AAP PRO or 1648/AAP ?
I live in the US so I dont know where you might get ahold of a AOpen 1648/AAP or a pro version. the pro version is not even available here yet. the only posters I have seen who have gotten a Pro version are those who do live in europe. I think most of them got their drives from online retailers in germany. there was a thread on the pro version about a month ago that had some links to online retailers in europe stocking the pro version.
which drive of this list to buy in first ?
ASUS DVD-E616P2 (Pioneer based like the P1 ?)
Toshiba SD-1912 (worst than the SD-M1802 ?)
Aopen 1648/AAP Pro (worst than the no Pro ?)
Liteon SOHD-167T (worst than the SOHD-166S ?)
Could you class by preference the above list ?
If you have an other drive to advice me, be welcome. 
Thank you.
