| Been in use for 1 yr now, never installed packaged software, upgraded driver and firmware whenever available from manufacturer's website. Using for DVD movie backup only, have burned over 400 -R discs on TDK, Ritek, Prodisc, TY and 1 Fuji +RW using various programs (w/ XP), such as DVD X Copy, Nero Ultra, DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink. Have made very few coasters and have narrowed them down to defective batches, Taiyo Yuden being the most reliable thus far. Could obviously use some more speed, but I knew what I was getting into when I purchased it. Well, not exactly, did not know at the time it had a NEC drive in it, no wonder it's still going strong. I'm keeping it until a DL -R writer comes out, seems like too many compatability issues with the DL +R media on stand alone's. Comments posted by HatchetMan from United States, November 02, 2004.

| Just got this a few days ago. Installation was easy and problem free on my 2 year old Compaq Presario desktop AMD Athlon XP 1.53Ghz with USB 2.0 . For now, have just used with DVD X-Copy Xpress and copied 3 dvd`s (matrix2, tombraider2, starwars ep2) onto dvd-r (maxell dvd-r :up to 4x) and all came in at an average of about 45 minutes read + write. Was able to play them on a PS2, a Pioneer DVR-310 and a year and a half old Panasonic dvd player. Utilizes -R(2X or 4X), +R(2.4X or 4X), -RW(2x) and +RW(2.4x) blank dvd`s. Unrated (no speed designation) or 1X discs are not recommended. Comments posted by ssprinter from Other, January 01, 2004. Rated this writer 8 of 10. |
