I bought 2 DVD writers. A Pioneer IDE and a Samsung SATA.

The Pioneer is recognized in bios by name but the Samsung shows up as some TSST#### something drive.

Anyone know why?:shrug:

TSSTCorp = POS. Those are the ones that we use at -insert company name here- I work at tech support, and they are a big POS. :P


PS: Not calling any names, i need the job. :P hahaha

I have an ultra cheap Samsung 16x dvd burner as well. Identified as TSSTCORP :ROTF: I don't burn much and it hasn't failed me yet :)

At least it was cheaper than a regular dvd read only drive

Yea pretty much everyone I talk to says Samsung are good DVD burners.

But even vic is allowed to have an opinion.

Loving my Samsung burner. Been going strong for nearly a year now; it's used at least twice a week to write and daily to read.

I have used them in 4 computers so far without one failing in the past 2 years.
