TrustedReviews has posted a followup DVD writer roundup where they take a look at five DVD recorders that didn't make their last roundup: the BenQ DW400A, the Gigabyte GO-W0404A, the Iomega Dual DVD, the MSI DR4-A and the NEC ND-1300A. Here's a bit from the roundup:

It was only a few weeks ago that we did a DVD writer roundup, but already the office cupboard was filling up with drives that didn’t make it into the last test. This is more of a small roundup with five drives trying to prove that they’re better than the winners from the last test. It’s pretty hard to come to any sort of conclusion from this roundup, since no one drive really stood out from the others.

The four-speed DVD+RW performance of the BenQ is commendable, but unfortunately it only writes to +RW media making it less versatile than the other drives. The Gigabyte isn’t the fastest DVD writer we’ve ever seen, but it is very fast at CD writing which will appeal to anyone who doesn’t want two drives in their PC. The Iomega is quite simply too expensive to consider. It’s an identical drive to the NEC and the bundle doesn’t offer enough to justify a price difference of over £50. If you’re just looking for a cheap basic drive the NEC has got a lot going for it. The performance is reasonable and the price is very low. So that leaves us with the MSI DR4-A. Well, it’s a decent enough bundle and a reasonable DVD writer, but there’s nothing to make it rise about the competition. The price is pretty good, and you do get some good software in the box, but there’s not quite enough there to make it worth an award.
