That a real no-brainer, really.

Just about all new DVD drives today will work with Vista x64 on the hardware level. Just be sure it comes supplied with DVD Burning software that is x64 compatible. I use Nero 8.

I'll recommend that you go with an LG drive. They have proven to be the most reliable. Although have you perhap considered getting a BLU-RAY drive instead?

Re: DVD-CD Drive

As cheap as DVD drives are these days you can get a quality drive for $30-$40 easily. No disrespect to Dzomlija's LG preference, but I've never owned one. I can recommend Pioneer 215 (SATA) 115 (PATA), Samsung 203B (SATA), NEC/Optiarc 72** in either SATA or PATA versions and most Lite-Ons are solid drives. A good place to make comparisons is CD Freaks as they regularly review new drives features and performance. Good luck and happy burning.
