Hi,

I've 2 PII PC w/ P2L97 motherboard, Maxtor HD (Maxtor DiamondMAX VL40 &
model 91080D5 HD in each respectively) & XP Home installed. I used them
to download books & movie files from internet. I want to burn the
downloaded files to DVD immediately after the download so I intend to
install DVD-writer drive in these PCs (now I use CD-RW drive).

Below are some DVD models I found :

BenQ DW1625
LG GSA-4163B
LITEON 1673S, 1653S, 1633S
AOpen DUW1616L
ASUS E616A (no comments found here)
Artec VOM-12E48X

>From the comments here, it seems the LG model is better for my purpose
since it can write various kinds of DVD including those cheap ones.
However, I'm quite concern that if all of these are compatible with my
PC H/W & OS configuration because many of them requires PIII CPU.

Can somebody suggest if these models can be used with my PC ?

PS: I've one Althon 1700+ PC too but I don't PREFER to use it for
burning DVD purpose because this is my main working PC.
