Hi all, I have two brand new sony drives in my brand new pc (24x CD-RW & 16x DVD-ROM). Dunno why I didn't buy Liteon or something; live and learn I guess.
Anyway, the net is full of grumpy Sony drive owners who have retired their drives to doorstops (these things are effectively disposable items, but its still £70 that could have been spent on something else...)
Are they a bad brand in reliability terms (docs/support are crap)? Should I try and offload this pair (and get a pair of LG/Liteon drives), or should I just stick it out?
I know it sounds daft, but I hate the thinks-one-has-bought-a-turkey feeling...
