Works great. No complaints. Maybe a little noisy, but that's really no big deal.

Selecting and Installing Optical Drives
If you want to upgrade your existing optical drives or add something new,
like a DVD drive, here are some easy tips to follow to help you make your
choice. For your convenience, we’ve included nearly a score of simple
installation hints, along with helpful photographs, to assist you.
CD / DVD Burners
A CD / DVD Burner is a computer peripheral device that stores data on optical
discs (CDs or DVDs). Some drives can only read from
discs, but commonly drives are both readers and recorders. Recorders are
often called burners or writers. Today, most computers come with a DVD CD
Burner combo, a
DVD Burner, a
CD Burner, or an External DVD Burner. However, as the technology evolves,
it is necessary to upgrade to the latest burners to stay current with the latest
optical media formats. If your computer only came with a CD burner, then
upgrading to a DVD & CD Burner means you can record both of today's most popular
formats.
CD & DVD burner drives from
HP,
Pioneer,
Plextor, Sony, and other are generally used for making backup copies of
prerecorded media, archival storage, or data exchange. With the current low
prices for media, and the vaster storage capacities, DVD burners especially are
increasingly popular. CD burners, and DVD burners, along with flash memory,
have displaced floppy disk drives and magnetic tape drives as the preferred
backup and storage devices in computers and consumer entertainment hardware.
With new DVD to DVD duplicators from
Norazza, making backups of your DVDs is easier than ever!
