乍看之下, 覺得怪怪的, 跟之前印象不一樣, 連進去看一下.
果然, 大大 post 的是舊的投票了 - 2004 年.

新的是 2005.05 投的 , BenQ 變成第一名.

Which 16x DVD Writer Should I Buy? (MAY 2005)
- 問題 : 我應該買哪一台16x的 DVD 燒錄機.

投票結果 :

BenQ 37.32%
NEC 23.90%
LG 11.74%
Plextor 10.69%
Liten-On 9.43%
Pioneer 5.66%

雖然是最新的, 不過也好幾個月以前了, 那是 1620 pro 的年代. 1640 還沒出來.
比就有趣的, 先鋒在歐洲一直評價很差, 據說美國也不行.
好像只有大陸跟台灣比較受歡迎 - 至於日本市場, 我就不太清楚了.

下面是這次投票時( 2005.05 ) 的提示訊息.

BenQ:
* DVD write quality: Good and fast
* Reading: Good but slow (riplock can be removed by MCSE)
* Bitsetting: Yes
* PI/PIF scanning: Yes
* Misc: Good customer support/focus; official media overspeeding support (no need to use patched firmwares for overspeeding); the use of PCAV for 8x and 12x allows it to burn discs very fast, good 16x speeds, also

NEC:
* DVD write quality: Good (slow burning speeds at lower speeds)
* Reading: Good and fast (riplock can be removed with a hacked firmware)
* Bitsetting: Yes (requires hacked firmware)
* PI/PIF scanning: Yes (at the moment only in the 3520)
* Misc: Very poor customer support/focus, though there is a strong die-hard community that makes up for it; media overspeeding is available through the use of hacked firmwares; the use of ZCLV for 8x makes it the slowest burner when burning at 8x (though its 12x and 16x speeds are up to par)

LiteOn:
* DVD write quality: Average at 16x. Good at 12x or slower
* Reading: Excellent but slow (riplock can be removed with OmniPatcher)
* Bitsetting: Yes
* PI/PIF scanning: Yes
* Misc: One of the few DVD burners that excels at overcoming CD copy protections; strong community; hacked firmwares that allow for limited amounts of overspeeding; the use of PCAV for 8x allows it to burn 8x discs very fast, conservative 12x is a bit on the slow side, decent 16x speeds

Pioneer:
* DVD write quality: Good
* Reading: Good and fast
* Bitsetting: No
* PI/PIF scanning: Yes
* Misc: Strong community support (at rpc1.org)... >NIL:'s hacked firmwares allow for overspeeding; the A08/108's has gotten poor press about its ZCLV use (not just for 8x) and its 16x burn speed, which is slower than its 12x burn speed (effectively making the A08/108 more of a 12x burner than a 16x burner)

LG:
* DVD write quality: Good and fast (esp. with the latest models)
* Reading: Good, but there is a riplock (no hacked firmware to remove riplock exists yet)
* Bitsetting: Partial (not all plus media types)
* PI/PIF scanning: No
* Misc: Good customer support; no hacked firmwares for media overspeeding; DVD write speed can be quite good, depending on which model it is; newer models seem to do quite nicely in the 8x/12x/16x speed department...supports DVD-RAM

Samsung:
* DVD write quality: 552B poor/552U good
* Reading: Good but slow (no rip unlock)
* Bitsetting: No
* PI/PIF scanning: No
* Misc: Good CD-R write quality; good at CD copy protections; 552U has 6x +R DL; no hacked firmwares for media overspeeding

Plextor:
* DVD write quality: Good and fast (needs latest firmware)
* Reading: Good and fast (supplied software allows read speed increase)
* Bitsetting: Partial (not all plus media types)
* PI/PIF scanning: Yes (scanning software provided)
* Misc: Rich on features; Poor -R media compatibility; Good DAE speed; 8MB buffer; Expensive; no hacked firmwares for media overspeeding
