DVD-RAM writer for PC

To complement the Panny E55 decided to get a writer installed on the PC too but was wondering what recommendations people had or used themselves. Need one that will read DVD-RAM(and ideally wouldn`t mind writing RAM too), so far looking at the LG`s GSA-4160 or 4163, anyone any recomendations on what they`ve used/found reliable?

If you REALLY wanna get a RAM writer, PM me. Lemme know how much those ones you`re looking at are, `cause I have an LG DAD-8020B boxed Retail sitting here, used once to test it worked!

Then I found out my drive read RAM discs and I only wanted it to read, not write, so became another of my "in a box for the future" purchases :D
BTW, it`s perfect nick, the software is older versions, but still sealed (might allow updates...?) and as I said used once.

I have the E55 and the LG - GSA 4???B. Seems to work fine although I haven`t really used it much for writing to RAM. I did put a RAM disk in to see if I could then copy it to DVD-R and it seemed fine. Cost me about £50 from e-buyer about 4 months back, so should be cheaper now. I bought it b4 the E55 - it was just a fluke that it`s compatible with my E55.

I bought a brand new LG GSA-4082B off ebay a couple of months ago for £22 for editing my RAM discs. Reads everything I`ve thrown at it, fantastic value! 8)
