CD-ROM Drive for a Budget PC
CDs are as ubiquitous today as floppies were in the past. You’ll definitely want to pick up a drive that is at least capable of reading CDs. However since the cost of CD-Writing (CD-R) drives have become almost as cheap as just CD-Reading drives, you should consider picking up a CD-R drive.
The Lite-On 52x32x52 (B0000C454M) drive provides fast burning speeds at an affordable price. It can read discs at 52x, burn CD recordable (CD-R) disc at 52x and burn CD re-writable (CD-RW) discs at 32x.
