Buyer Reviews :
This drive supports all 4 popular DVD formats:
DVD-R
DVD-RW
DVD+R
DVD+RW
It does not support DVD-RAM but trust me, you don't need that. With the DLA (Drive Letter Access) software that Sony gives you with the drive, DVD-RAM really isn't needed. Not to mention I know of zero standalone DVD players that support DVD-RAM.
It comes with 1 DVD+RW disc which I doubt your standalone DVD player supports so pick up some -R or +R discs. WARNING!!!! NOT ALL DVD+R and DVD-R DISCS ARE CREATED EQUAL!!!! I purchased some Imation DVD+R discs with the drive and they did not work! Sony claims that some discs are of low quality and have a list that they support... Imation is not one of them. Try Sony or Verbatim discs... I can confirm they work. I believe TDK also works according to Sony.
Make sure you upgrade your firmware when you install. The drive comes with Sonic MyDVD burning software which isn't bad. Nero is the best but MyDVD is fine if it's FREE! ;-)
Anyway, it's a great drive... the only reason I give it 4 stars is price. I think it's a little slow compared to some -R drives but not by much. If you have the money, get this drive. For a cheaper solution, get the Pioneer A05.
Good luck!
