CD/DvD Drive?

I'm building my own gaming computer and I was just wondering what a good CD/DvD Drive that would fit in my computer case would be? I have a Cooler Master RC 690 ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119137 ). My budget is under $25. Thanks

Do not worry about the DVD Drive box size. It is comes with stander size, which can be connect any desktop computer cabinet. You can buy any one.

I think his may, one of the newegg reviews mentions the included software working with Vista 64-bit Home Premium:

"Pros: the software that came with the drive worked on vista 64 premium with 0 issues. installed fine and windows saw the drive first time. burns fast and reads fast also. came with everything you need to install it

Cons: none "
You can't be sure though.

Yes. A 'DVD Burner' will read and write both CDs and DVDs.

The last 12 that I have purchased from Newegg (overe the last 3 months) have included a disc that contains Nero 7 Essentials, some version of Power DVD and some Secure Disc thing that I have never opened.

Yes, and it will do it efficiently and quietly.
