Another review has been posted by our Administrator & Reviewer Dee-27: the HP DVD-1035I.

The HP DVD-1035i supports 20x DVD±R, 8x/6x DVD+RW/-RW, and 8x DVD+R/DL-R DL writing technology, allowing Double/Dual Layer discs of 8.5GB to be written. In addition this drive also supports DVD-RAM read and write at 12x.

The HP DVD-1035i is good in the most important areas (CD-R and DVD±R writing quality and performance). Very interesting is also the ability to read pressed DVD Video SL/DL and recordable media at 16x/12x (many drives are locked by manufacturer and can read such discs only at much slower speeds).

More detailed information can be found in the complete review, and as usual feel free to discuss about this article on the dedicated thread on our forum.
