What's the best drive for 100GB/Triple Layer disc's?

Post by charnathan »

Currently I have an ASUS BW-16D1HT. I've had it for almost 3 years, but I notice that it can be a gamble on whether or not it will be able to read 100 GB disc's right away. Most of the time it take over 10 tries to get it to finally read the disc (even after cleaning).

It may be time to get a new drive, not sure. But I'm wondering if there is a consensus on what is the best drive for 100 GB disc's?

Thanks for the suggestions. Just ordered a LG BU40N!

I'm thinking having a second drive will help determine if a disk is truly bad.
