The equivalent to what an Asus or an Abit is to the motherboard market, Lite-On has become an instantly recognizable name in the DVD industry. Lite-On has been holding its own for some years now in this though market.

Today, I am proud to be taking a look a one of Lite-On's latest DVD±RW drives: the SOHW-1673S . Which features the latest in DVD burning technology--4x DVD+R DL burning capabilities. The SOHW-1673S also features 16x DVD±R burning capability.

For this review I'll be using a number of utilities to put the SOHW-1673S through its paces.

Utilities:

• Nero InfoTool 3.00
• Nero CD-DVD Speed 3.70
• Easy CD-DA Extractor 8.0.2 1
• DVD Decrypter 3.5.2.0
• Nero Burning ROM 6.6.0.8
