This HP brand optical drive is $40 with free shipping at new egg.
EDIT: As of June 15, 2009, this is the cheapest optical drive in new condition that is available online.
It is easily the best deal because not only is it the cheapest one, but HP is one of the best brands for computer/computer accessories.
The cheapest around would be the “memorex” brand. They start out at $50 dollars —> memorex 3202 ext dvd-rw. If you don’t plan on carrying it around, then it would suit you just fine. But if you are a student like I am and want to have it just in case, I suggest adding another $20 dollar to your base price and go with either a samsung or liteon brand. Both are slim and light and draws power from the usb cables where as the memorex is nearly triple in size and uses draws power using dc power cables. If weight clearly isn’t the issue and you probably will leave it at the house, then I say go for the memorex. But if you have some intentions of carrying it with you half of the and is having a hard time finding power source, I would recommend you going with some other brand. Total including taxes you are looking to spend close to $80 dollars. For that price, I recommend you just by the Acer One accessory kit; which includes slim ext dvd-rw, wireless mouse and case for $100. Considering that carrying case cost nearly $20 dollars and a wireless mouse is another $20, I would just go for the Acer kit. For netbook users, I totally recommend something slim and small and that it draws power from the usb cable rather than fighting over another starbuck guy for usage of extra outlet. Comparing the disadvantages and advantages of both, it would be a smarter choice to go with the slim line series of ext dvd burner.
P.S. Because every manufacturer has its own software that is supplied with the product, I suggest you check it and be familiarize with the software being bundle with the package as some software are not user friendly and that can cause a lot of agony (going back to store for refund…complaining about not being able to use software and etc.) Because newer ext burner these days all come with lightscribe as one of their feature, it is also crucial that if you already have an existing software, that it is capable of using the feature “lightscribe”. If not, then you may want to upgrade or use the bundle package that came with the product you purchased.
