Plextor PlexWriter 12/10/32

Pros: Fast, error proof, doesn't require drivers, burns EVERYTHING
Cons: Requires a fairly nice IDE controller...details inside

For the speed, for the capabilities, for the price, for the hassle free installation, for the error proof technology, for the ability to burn anything, this is the best burner I have had the pleasure of using. When anybody asks me about what burner they...

Pros: Easy installation. Fast and efficient.
Cons: None.

Plextor is a "HOT" name in the computer CD burn world. While at the Expo show on Saturday, there was just so many representatives giving their talk. I of course got mine there. What a price $199!! I couldn't beat it. This is my first burner. I...

Pros: Fast, coaster-proof burner
Cons: None I could find

Between work and home, I use plenty of CDR/W burners. The Plextors have always performed the most reliably. But even they could make coasters. Now, with BURNproof, this 12/10/32A is flawless.

I read another review here stating that when using...

Pros: BURNproof, fast and compatible with all types of CDR
Cons: I honestly can't think of any

I recently put together a computer with a Duron 700, 128MB RAM and various other bits and pieces, not least the Plextor BURNproof. I have owned a CDR before but this one was superb.

Usually, with my old writer I had to close everything down...

Pros: Super fast, burn proof technology
Cons: None found yet!!!

My previous CD-RW was a Creative 4x2x24. This was a very serviceable unit, and came with Nero, a very good and flexible burning program.

I had the opportunity to upgrade my burner, and pass the old one on to someone else to use, and after...

Pros: it's solid as a rock
Cons: it could come with free movie tickets (aka no problems)

This drive Rocks, it's a spendy drive. But so was the 16-bit Nintendo when it came out and i bought it then for 150 and it was worth every penny. This is the same 250 aint bad when you can burn a cd in 7 min. With out ever making a coaster. This drive is...

Pros: Best writer out there, supported with a lot of cd writing software
Cons: Surprising...no CONS!!!

Ok here's the smackdown on this. Plextor drives (any speed) are the best CD Recording drives on the market. Ever since I got this drive, I haven't had a problem, I haven't even had one bad coaster. Another good thing about this writer is that a lot of...

Pros: Easy to install, FAST recording
Cons: None that I can tell

I had an old HP 8100i CD-burner when I got my new computer, and I was ready to start churning out CDs from mixes I made from various sources. I had the software that came with it and found some others that worked well. I sat down and started recording...

Pros: reliability and BURNPROOF
Cons: price is higher than others.

I bought this on the opinion of others and they were dead on. After frustration with a phillips CD-RW (brand new model) and the inability to burn at 8X consistently (had to go to 4X to make it reliable)...i've been able to burn 12X at least 150 CD's with...

Pros: Burn-Proof Technology, Reliable, Fast, and the Burner that others compare to.
Cons: Doesn't make coasters

I make computers and I have installed and tried brands such as Sony, Hewlett Packard, Teac, Pacific Digital, Samsung, Yamaha, and Panasonic. All of them perform the main purpose of burning well. They do copy programs and make audio cd's, but they also...

Pros: Fast - Very fast
Cons: Nothing

This is the second CD-RW I have owned and I chose this one quite simply because of the speed. I've owned a 2x for about 4 1/2 years now and have accumulated all of the software over the years that I need so that was not an issue for me. Quite simply I...

Pros: The BEST at everything
Cons: absolutely none

Before buying this CD burner, I read all the reviews I could find from PC magazines and many websites. Everyone was in agreement that this burner is top notch. Having bought one myself a few months ago, I can say it is fantastic.
My last burner...

Pros: Fast and reliable.
Cons: Tray not designed to hold disk vertically

My older 6x Smart and Friendly CD Burner was about used up and the company had entered Chapter 11. It was time to look for something new. But, I have a big problem; my system is a mini-tower placed horizontally in a roll top computer desk. That means...

Pros: Burn proof! Burn Proof!
Cons: None that I can see

Running out of hard drive space....must burn cd!

Like above said I was running out of precious hard drive space and the network I am on is flaky at best. I did not want to take the time to copy everything over to my roommate's computer and...

Pros: Price, performance, BURNproof, ruggedness.
Cons: 2MB buffer

I've gone through more than one CD writer in my time, the last one being a Creative Labs that left a sour taste in my mouth, so I decided to investigate the market before my next purchase. I came across Plextor, and it seemed a little high at the time,...
