Any recommendations for a cheap CD-RW

Hello

I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a cheap CD-RW drive, does not need to be anything special.

Many thanks

    I don't think there's much between any of them these days.

    LiteOn / Sony (Liteon built but with a Sony badge on = more expensive than a LiteOn) are very good though.

    Look around the local independent dealers and possibly some computer fairs (check for free entry / reduced entry tickets). I would expect to get change out of £20 for a CD-RW these days, roughly £30 for a CD-RW / DVD-ROM combi.

    I have a spare NEC NR-7900A in the cupboard which is nearly new. (pulled from a 3 week old PC to add DVD burner)
