After one day long study of testing report at

http://www.cdrinfo.com/Sections/Reviews/Home.aspx?ArticleTypeId=2&SubCategoryId=32

about LG 4167B, Pioneer DVR-110 & DVR-110D, Plextor PX-716AL (from my
layman's view), I decided & did bought one LG 4167B (non box set) at
$41.7 (equivalent USD) from shop. LG was choosed because I got the
impression from the test report that this model performed stably in
writing various media & can read wide range of media even if they were
copyright protected. I will use this DVD drive mainly for burning DVD.
So I don't mind it's slightly inferior performance in reading test.

Also, as I will not (and have no spare time too) buy all the DVD media
claimed supported by this model, I need some tools that can help me to
test the drive's function thoroughly. I hope the test will help me find
out if the bought drive function as it should be.

CDSpeed2000, DVDInfopro & KProbe2 were downloaded from below links:

Are these software suitable test suites ?
