    Warranty and support
    Optical storage devices almost always come with a one-year warranty. Burning optical media can be complicated, so phone support, although rarely toll-free, should be available. Fee-based support for out-of-warranty products is also welcome. Before calling, always check online troubleshooting guides, where you'll find answers to the most common problems.
