    Hi everyone, wondering which of these 2 drives I should keep from my e1505. Either a Philips SDVD8820 OR Toshiba TSSTCorp TS-L632D.

    I am not a super huge fan of Philips...but want to keep the better of the two drives. Anyone have any advice on errors or problems? Read that the Philips has compatibility issues with dvd players... :confused:

    I have the 8820 in two 1405's and both work fine without too much noise.
