I've used Lite-Ons and ASUS for DVD burners. Never had either of them fail on me or any builds I've done for anyone else. Shouldn't have to spend more than $30.
Thank you sir. I'll check some out. It's just strange the way this happened. Before I got the new HDD up and running, I was able to get some pictures copied off the old HDD, to disk on this same DVD. The disk that it read, there were no problems, just for some reason, it didn't like the two disk.
