Click "Start"...It's Finished!

by mryoung7 , Dec 09 '00
Pros: Blazing speed, no underburn errors as with other drives, simple to use
Cons: CD-RW media cannot be played in car or home stereos
At first I was under the impression that a CD-RW drive would allow me to make CDs to play while I'm on the road. So I set out to find a high-quality drive and convinced my brother to split the cost with me. I found the PlexWriter 12/10/32 and couldn't...

Best CD Writer drive on the market!

by ViperX3 , Jan 04 '01
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...

At last...burning that is good.

by Zmrzlina , Jan 20 '01
Pros: Installation is easy enough for someone with no prior experience.Customer service is wonderful
Cons: Design of PlextorManager 2000 is ugly and not very descriptive.
I bought my daughter the Plextor 12/10/32 internal burner for Christmas at Buy.com for $210.40. I was a bit nervous about installing the drive on my own, but figured I'd give it a try.

I chose Plextor because of a friend's recommendation. I...

Speed of Light!

by murphy23 , May 19 '01
Pros: Amazingly Fast
Cons: Comes with adaptec burning program
Well this was my first burner ever, and I decided to get the fastest one on the market. It was the fastest one when i bought it. Now theres 16X write, and I hear that the 20X is on its way. I got it and was happy right away when I saw that I could put...

No Brainer CDRW

by akira_xtc , Feb 01 '01
Pros: Burn-proof technology
Cons: Software
When i first got my Plexwriter 12/10/32, i was a little bit skeptical with the advertised Burn-proof technology. I've used Philips, Smart&Friendly, even the older Plexwriter 8/4/32A... every one of them at least had experienced buffer underrun. I...

Speedy CD Writing

by bigviv , Feb 22 '01
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...

Good for the money

by harvrdguy , Oct 10 '00
Pros: Easy to use, fast.
Cons: Not 100% accurate
Plextor's PlexWriter 12/10/32 is one of the better cd read/write components on the market for the money. It's fast, easy to use, and has become one of my favorite computer toys.

It's so easy to use! You simply drag and drop the files that...

A great IDE CDRW drive

by jvolzer , May 20 '01
Pros: Fast, no buffer under-runs, works great
Cons: A little expensive
I've been through several CD-RW drives over the past few years. I've been disappointed in the HP drives in particular (I had two drive fail, both shortly after warranty ran out) so it was time to spend a few more dollars for a Plextor. I'm glad I did!...

WHY buy anything else?

by what-I-think , Nov 19 '00
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...

Kick butt drive!

by andrewma , Dec 29 '00
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...

Plextor is still the king!

by rfman Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 01 '01
Pros: Incredibly fast, whisper-quiet, burn-proof technology
Cons: Slightly pricey
When we were looking to replace the burners in the systems at work, I was asked which type we should get. It was without hesitation that I recommended Plextor. For years past, Plextor has been the king of SCSI CD-ROMs and CR-Writers. I assumed that...

I don't get it!

by dclong , Dec 21 '00
Pros: BURN-Proof Technology
Cons: Nowhere near the advertised speeds!
So I read all the reviews, checked out the opinions here on our beloved Epinions board, and send away for the Plextor 12/10/32A.

For all of you who have written a glowing review, would you please get back to me at daniel@daniellong.com and...

A fine piece of hardwar

by bull4now , Oct 20 '00
Pros: Speed, almost can't fail to write.
Cons: Hmmm... can't think of any.
I bought this machine because the HP8210e USB model would not work with my Dell Dimension XPS450. Very frustrating. The Plextor is simply a divine machine. The only thing you have to watch is that you don't put an out of balance CD in it because it...

AMONG the best IDE CD-RW drives

by dpacheco20 , Jun 09 '01
Pros: Nice drive/technical support
Cons: Adaptec software
First off, I said AMONG hte bet bescause it is not the best. Performance wise it is the best, but its included software keeps me back from giving it the title: BEST.

OK, my system specs are: Athlon 800MHz, Abit Ka7-100 motherboard, 192mb...
