Replacement DVDRW Drive

One drive has started burning coasters, though it is the one most used, three years old. Is it worth using a lens cleaner?
I have a standalone blu ray player, is it worth replacing the PC Drive with a Blu Ray Writer
Am thinking of Pioneer, though if you have any suggestions could you let me know
Dual core processor with Windows 7 and 3GB Ram

new drives are really inexpensive, and fitting one is a doddle

unless you want/need/will use bluray I wouldn't bother for another year or 2 with one, even though you have the standalone are you likely to be copying disks?
As to brand, they're pretty much the same, pioneer are ok, as are liteon and pretty much everyone else

I saw a Pioneer one which writes to 128GB discs, though they probably cost as much as the drive
Will stick to a standard drive0
