    I'm looking to buy an external DVD burner from Dell because I have a $50 coupon and I need a burner. Can anyone suggest a good one from their website? I've looked but I'm not sure what I need. I'm only going to use it every so often to back up my hard drive on a DVD.

    I/O Magic doesn't make any of their own drives. I guess it would depends on which drive it is based off. I think if you are not using it much either will do.
