I really like this one, compared to all the others here, mainly for it's clean UI, x64 support and integrated hasher. This freeware absolutely rocks. also the ease of configuring drive letter order is great too.

Great app, it allows very easy mounting and unmounting, just by right clicking, and good for making and burning iso's as well.

Programs I used to use and why I no longer use them. I expect this list to grow and change over time.
