I have used both drives, I think the Benq 1640 is the better writer. But you shouldn't be unhappy with either drive. I ended up selling the liteon when I got the Benq because my Pioneer 109 remains the best ripper of sctratched discs I've owned.

I primarly use dash media. Ritek, Maxmax and some Verbatim. The only DL media I've used is Verbatim plus so I can't comment on the DL-R problem.
