"As opposed to other drives implementing LightScribe under license, Hewlett-Packard *invented* LightScribe in the first place, so who would know the technology better? Also, the drive uses the same IDE/ATAPI interface as the drive it would likely replace, making it (in most cases) a relatively painless swap. Only Windows Vista requires an upgrade to use the LightScribe features; however, that is a free download (..." Read Full Review »

"Everything bout this unit is good to excellent, but all my attempts of creating a LightScribe disc label have ended up with nothing but a bunch of dingy streaks on the label.

"Needing a DVD R, I happened to come across the HP light scribe system and to my delight, this is a very useful DVD burner.
