Bought it, installed for about a week now. Burns cd's really fast. I use windows to burn them, no other third party software. But it doesn't read DVD-Rs, even after all updates to firmware. That makes it practically unusable to me. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Samsung offers little to no support.
