Well, judging from the review on this page for the AOpen drive, I would not recommend purchasing that one. And the Sony drive is just a LiteON drive with a hacked firmware and a nice looking sticker that says Sony on it, so that already rules out two for you [:D].
Between the LiteON and the Samsung I would DEFFINATLY choose the LiteON. It's a faster drive (The LiteON is one of the fastest 52x drives on the market!) and it is very compatible with various types of media ESPECIALLY Taiyo Yuden [;)]
You can also download testing software such as K-Probe and/or CD-Doctor which will allow you to test the quality of the your backups, so that you know if your data is secure or not.
on a personal note, I've been using a LiteON for about a year now (the 40125S model, overclocked to a 48125W), and it has served me very well, and produced at least 800 stable burns during its time with me.
but that's just my opinion [:)]
