"..With the fastest DVD data rates available, and CD data rates that match current drives, the Pioneer DVD-103S is an excellent choice for upgrading that aging 12x CD-ROM drive, and/or jumping into the world of DVD. As a third generation DVD-ROM drive with the kinks ironed out, it is now reasonable to use this as your only DVD/CD-ROM drive in a system, with no fears of compatibility problems.
