I have the Pioneer DVR-108 and have had very good luck with it.

Same applies here.

I've have good results with this dual layer model:

DVD+/-RW 16x+|NEC ND-3500A BK W/SW

I got a NEC ND-3500AG. Works great. Think I bought it based off reviews at Anandtech.

I guess the 3520's are the newer models - a lot of positive reviews at newegg. $59.99 on sale too.

Pioneers use the Plextor hardware, except with plastic gears instead of metal, basically. (I'm oversimplifying some, but that's the general idea)

I would strongly suggest using either brand, since Plextor's internals are literally industry standard.

I, personally, paid the premium for the Plextor drive, and it's built like a freaking tank. Of course, if you want a more "consumer grade" product (or rather, the "consumer grade" price tag), I strongly support Pioneer's offerings. They won't let you down, either.
