OC Freak has reviewed the latest LiteOn DVDRW drive (1673). An excellent review. A shame the drive is lackluster at CDR writing, as that has traditionally been a strong point for LiteOn drives!

To sum it all up, this is the best we could say: “Acceptable DVD-Writer at 8x Writing speed, but 16x writing still needs improving. And very poor CD-Writing quality doesn’t make this drive your first choice.” Lite-On: Next time – try to head in the right direction only, instead of improving some things and breaking others.
