Pros: easy to install, portable, very very few problems/coasters due to burner Cons: I've had problems burning at 4X
About a year ago, I was listening to a live recording of a 1992 Pearl Jam show I had on cassette. The show was incredible, showing off exactly why the band got the reputation they did in those days. There was just one problem: the hiss and...
Pros: Excellent Value, Features and Performance Cons: none
In considering the variety of removable storage and backup devices, I was having difficulty in choosing which way to go. Zip 100? Zip 250? Orb 2.2? Superdisk 120? CD-R? CD-RW? These are a few of the options I considered.
Pros: Portable, lightweight Cons: May not be compatible with your equipment
Microsolutions designed these drives specifically for laptop computers, but it is an answer to a prayer if you compute on a budget, but have multiple computers to support. Since the drive is not meant to be used with a laptop all the time, the drivers...
Pros: Portability, Ease of connectivity Cons: None!
I use A LOT of different computers at a lot of different places (being homeless will do that you), so when I needed a burner I needed something small, lightweight, fast, and easy to install. The Backpack CDRW from MicroSolutions fit the bill perfectly!...
Pros: small-efficient Cons: a little difficulty in instructions
It is small easy to operate and affordable. The instructions are a little confusing. I had to call technical support at least once. But after that is a breeze to use. Now keep in mind that when you make a cd of your own, especially music, it takes a long...
Pros: Fast, external, inexpensive, printer port Cons: might need upgrade, bad tech. support.
I searched long and hard to find the best external cd rewriter. I found it in the backpack cd-rewriter. I bought my backpack 20x4x4 for $240 through egghead.com. Compared to the rest on the market at the time this external was both faster and far...
Pros: Excellent backup device Cons: Don't forget the CD-RW formatting time
In need of a backup device and those 100 MB Zip drives aren't cutting it any more? Don't have a SCSI port or need to backup multiple machines? Want to create music CDs from all those MP3s you’ve downloaded off of Napster? MicroSolutions Backpack...
Pros: Versatile Cons: External so you have to put it somewhere
I wanted a CD burner to make some music CDs for use in the car. I went shopping for such a device and ended up purchasing the Micro Solution Backpack.
Types Available
There are two types of Backpacks available, one connects to the...
I think MicroSolutions made this cd copier with laptops in mind. Its not too big to carry around in a bag. And it gets the job done quickly with no problems. It can be used as a rewriter too, but i find it more convenient to just buy cd-r's because...
Pros: Easy to setup with windows 95 Cons: Still looking for an idiot-proof installation.
I purchased this product for our group in our area. We needed to backup our laptops and desktop machines. Some of the machines had USB and some did not. All have PCMCIA, but many use both slots already. Hence the combination of the parallel and the...
Pros: Very Fast, Comfortable Cons: None that I can see!
Hello, I have bought the Backpack CD Writer 4x, and i am very happy with it. I think if you wanted to buy a CD Writer, you would have to go for this one. It is very cheap, pretty fast, and comfortable. ...
Pros: Easy to install, portable, easy to make CDs Cons: Causes me printer problems with Windows ME
"Hot Pluggable means you can use it in your car to record music," thus spake the computer genius in Office Depot who was trying to sell me this CD writer. "Just plug it into your cigarette lighter and you can record from the radio," he continued....
Pros: it is also a cd-rewriter, burns a full disc in 20 minutes Cons: haven't been able to burn in DAO yet
I got the Micro Solutions Backpack cd-rewriter for Christmas, and although I asked for a Plextor (since I had heard so much good stuff about them), I am quite pleased with this burner.
This was very easy to install, all I had to do was plug...
