I was originally getting this SATA drive
Newegg.com - SAMSUNG Black 20X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD+R DL 20X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 12X DVD-RAM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM 2MB Cache SATA 20X DVD±R DVD Burner with LightScribe - CD / DVD Burners
but this IDE one
Newegg.com - LITE-ON Black 20X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 8X DVD+R DL 20X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 12X DVD-RAM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM 2MB Cache IDE 20X DVD±R DVD Burner - CD / DVD Burners
is dirt cheap! Almost $15 cheaper than the Samsung one.
Is the IDE one that bad that I should get the SATA drive?
I'm probably not going to upgrade my comp for at least 2, probably more than that.
I want to cut down on things like DVD Burners and cases so I can spend more money on PSU and RAM.
I heard IDE drives are significantly more louder and slower.
But only difference between these two drives seems to be.... the price.
Thank you for reading!
EDIT: I am most likely not going to use the LightScribe feature on the Samsung one.
