Performance Exceeds My Expectations!
(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Apr 13, 2004BENQ!
I wasn't familiar with that brand name and there were no reviews on Amazon about this product indicating whether or not this drive was any good. The price seemed pretty fair so I just took a chance and bought it. It could not have been any easier to install and that evening I watched a 2-hour DVD movie using it and the movie played flawlessly which was something I was not used to, simply because the original drive (that came with my desktop PC) was a slow 8X (speed) and it had always had some kind of bug with it; it wouldn't play dvds correctly and sometimes would refuse to play a dvd at all. Goodness know why!
But this thing gave me real pleasure playing that first dvd so flawlessy and I hope it will continue to do so for a very long time.
For me this drive was a perfect buy!

Great product, Great price
(5 out of 5) by A. L. Cafasso on Jan 6, 2005 (Pittsburgh, Pa)I had only heard of BENQ a littel bit, so I was kinda concerned about buying this product, but once it arrived it was VERY EASY to install and it works GREAT!
Rather quiet during use, reads recorded DVD's great too.
Excellent price as well.

Decent drive, especially for the money.
(4 out of 5) by T. Daniele on Nov 5, 2009 (Western NY)I've had this drive for over a year now, and it still works fine. Seems to have average spin up times and average noise levels. This was my first BenQ product, and I would consider other products based on this unit.
Outstanding product at extraordinary price
