Decent optical drive

[Instinktas]

Im not sure what optical drive to take for mainly installing software or games. Any suggestions?

there only a few vendors now that make the guts for the drives. most of the drive vendors all use the same guts.
asus and samsug drives i find are well built. with a 20.00 dvd burner combo drive it will work or it wont. if it doa you rma it back.
