i have a pioneer dvd-109 which is great and very cheap (£35) will do dual layer, last month in PC Pro they gave a plextor drive a rave review below costs slightly more but may out do the pioneer on performance

everything except DVD-RAM so CD-R/CD-RW and DVD+R/DVD-R and DVD-RW/DVD+RW as well as dual layer formats which are about, but few and far between at the moment, think one Chris Suggested does RAM too?

Too late i know but i would have suggested the Pioneer 110D or the NEC 4550 (if you need to burn dvd-ram)

I've got an LG Multi-drive thingy - not really test in anger yet though.
early Pioneer I had is ok - though a bit funny with Nero sometimes - a bootable DVD only burns at 1x Zzzzzz!
Had 2 NEC's - one just failed after about 4 months, the other I've just replaced as a CD shattered inside!

I recently got a Lite-on SHW 1693. Dual Layer, retail with black & beige bezels, all delivered for £38. It's won and done well in loads of tests/reviews.
