The CD-ROM so fast it can't keep up with itself!

by DJ1s , Feb 25 '01
Pros: It didn't deteriorate in my hands
Cons: Just about everything
This review was one I wrote a while back for a hardware site I was going to create but, soon found that I didn't have the time for and it was never released to the public. But, I figured I'd still let the public know about this specific drive; and...

My Experience = Avoid Memorex Drives

by RBradford , Dec 28 '00
Pros: Great Price
Cons: Lousy Performance
I purchased a Memorex CD-ROM drive shortly after they entered the computer peripherals market. It was a 32X drive, and the price at that time was unbelievable. I think with the rebate offered that I paid something like $20 dollars total. As it turned...

Decent Product, Decent Price

by mattyork28 , Mar 19 '00
Pros: Cheap, easy installation
Cons: noisy
I bought my Memorex 40X CDROM about three months ago and have not had any problems so far. The reason I bought the Memorex is because I needed to replace my old CDROM that finally quit working. I choose the Memorex strictly on price. I figured it...

You can't go wrong with this drive!

by mshantar , Sep 11 '00
Pros: Price, reliability, ease of install.
Cons: Lack of good documentation, Speed not as promised.
Memorex is known in the computer industry as having average products at best. Several of their products stand out and their CD-ROM drives are definitely one of them.

Building many machines for myself as well as friends, I am always looking for...

Memorex 48X CD-ROM Drive

by sjollila , Dec 21 '99
Pros: Quiet operation, Fast speed
Cons: Short Life

I was very happy when I first purchased the Memorex 48X CD-ROM. The price was very reasonable for the speed. The drive motor is very quiet and I can't complain about the speed. When a CD was inserted it was up on the screen in auto-run in...

Memorex is OUT! NO More For Me!

by buddy12660 , Aug 23 '01
Pros: Price was OK.
Cons: Just about everything!
I have now owned 4 Memorex CD-Rom drives of various speeds. We have 3 desktop computers which I built and currently have these drives in them. The only reason I haven't replaced them at this time is that I can't afford to replace them and at least they...

Get a different drive!

by DarkAgeTat2 , Dec 28 '00
Pros: Fast read, quiet tray, will read most formats
Cons: NOISY, slow access and high price
Not to many people just go out and buy a fast CD-ROM because they want to upgrade there computer. My old 36X died and I needed a new drive. Wanting to stay away from no name drives that sound like an old ford diesel I decided to go with a mid range...

Memorex sucks

by bbulge1 , Jan 19 '00
Pros: quiet, autostart
Cons: breaks down within a year
A little over a year ago, someone had the bright idea to tell my then 5 year old nephew to close the CD drive. Guess what he hit it, resulting in the misalignment of the tray and the gears. This drive was a Mitsumi, which worked great the entire time...

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and I will find a drive that works!

by munchkin , Feb 26 '01
Pros: cheap
Cons: read for the low-down
I've owned several Memorex CD-ROM drives, and have had bad luck with all of them. At first I attributed it to poor care on my part, but after having an Acer drive for almost a year, I realized it wasn't me.
My 16X drive made terrible noises, I...
