That's pretty much it.

Lite-on ($74.99)

ASUS ($84.99)

They are both OEM versions, so you'll need a SATA connector and SATA power connector.

Both look the same except the power connector is wider

When choosing between the two burners, keep in mind that they are both actually the same burner. They are both manufactured by Lite-On. Other than watching and burning movies, they are good for storing copies of important files.

Optical drives dont suffer from one manufacturer being better than another. Most are made internally by the same folks and just rebranded. Find something in your budget and buy it. pretty simple.
