DVD burner

I'm looking for a dual-layer OEM DVD burner for my T60, does anyone have any suggestions? Apparently my sales rep configured my laptop with a regular DVD-ROM, not a burner like I wanted, and Lenovo refuses to exchange it. Buying a new burner from them would cost 260 dollars, which I don't want to do. Does anyone know which DVD burners (like on newegg or something) fit into the optical bay on the T60? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is it absolutely needed to have it fit into the T60? If you're looking for portability, I can't help but as I don't have a T60 right now...but if you already have a dual layer (internal) or can buy one for cheap, you can pick up an external enclosure, USB 2.0 or Firewire, from newegg and presto, external drive, albiet bulky.

Yeah I was thinking of just getting an external even though they are kinda big. Thanks for the input.
