Windows 7 DVD Burner

[Trouble]

I would appreciate some recommendations on the purchase of a new SATA internal DVD burner. Not a google search, not from the Windows7 Hardware Compatability List, and not something you read in consumer reports....I'm going to be purchasing two new ones soon, a sort of small Christmas present to myself...and I need to know from your guys personal experience, which one(s) will take a licking and keep on ticking. And maybe some "Stay away from this one" type recommendations also. Any help / advice will be appreciated, Christmas is rapidly approaching.
Thanks
Randy
