Scour used our news submit to tell us "A big improvement is the 16x-read of DVD-R/+R. The writing-quality with DVD+R DL and some cheap 16x +R like Ritek and Optodisc is not good, but with other media it performed well."
| While the GSA-2166D has its rough spots, it has a lot of potential. If LG can improve the writing quality, it could be one of the better external 16x DVD writers out there. The GSA-2166D should start shipping shortly after you read this and is expected to run about $130 at places like Best Buy. |
This new LightScribe supporting drive can burn 16x DVD±R, 8x DVD+RW, 6x DVD-RW, 8x DVD+R DL, 4x DVD-R DL and 5x DVD-RAM. In addition, you can expect to achieve 48x CD reading/writing speeds and 32x re-writing. The retail bundle includes software from Nero and CyberLink.
