I'm not sure if the SE-S184M is affected with the DVD-R leadin issue. You can find more information in one of my signature links about the problem. I would not recommend LG. My first burner was LG and the firmware support was not really good. I do not expect firmware updated until the end of my life, but after a few month no more updates because a bunch of new models were came out.... maybe LG changed this policy, but for me it looks like every few days a new LG burner is coming on the market...
