I am searching for a good new optical drive to burn CDr's and DVDr's, preferably internal. I am more interested in the CDr burning capability, and would like a drive that supports slow burning speeds like 4x with CLV to produce a uniform coloured burn on the disc (I had a Plextor PX-755 that stopped working). I mean I do not want a burn with different circular shades, which I think is the result of Z-CLV. Do we have any options today, as even finding an internal drive is getting difficult as far as I am seeing?

And their older gen models are also drastically increased in price (prob stock issues) from their msrp.

Here’s the Japanese pioneer website showing all of their discontinued models, including the ones i just linked:
https://jpn.pioneer/ja/pcperipherals/bd ... /archives/

I hope pioneer is developing a new drive, if not this might be the end for high quality blu ray drives (and dvd and cd drives) now, and with lg ending their blu ray player business, i don’t doubt they will come after the drives also.

Also im gen z if that matters and i never actually bought any of the name brand optical drives brand new before, only lg til now since i need something with good recording quality.

Film collectors recently discovered that potentially hundreds of Warner Bros. DVDs released between 2006 and 2008 have become unplayable due to laser rot. The company has promised to replace some affected titles, but others may become much harder to find through official channels.

Warner Bros. has confirmed the issue and advised customers with damaged discs to contact customer support. However, the company will only replace titles that are still in print. Unfortunately, many affected DVDs are either out of print or locked behind licensing restrictions. ]]> no_email@example.com (Ian) The Beer Garden http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&f=18&t=26557 Sat, 08 Mar 2025 23:42:56 GMT http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=26557&p181349#p181349 http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26556&p181337#p181337 no_email@example.com (gamemaniaco1987) DVD Writers http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&f=3&t=26556 Thu, 06 Feb 2025 10:11:11 GMT http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26556&p181337#p181337 http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26554&p181328#p181328 no_email@example.com (gamemaniaco1987) DVD Writers http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&f=3&t=26554 Mon, 03 Feb 2025 10:25:40 GMT http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26554&p181328#p181328 http://www.cdrlabs.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=26553&p181327#p181327
