  • Not the fastest, but most Reliable.

    Jan 20 '01
    Pros: Speed,reliability,extra software programs, Did I mention Speed?
    Cons: None so far.

    Summary: I just bought the TDK CDRW121032 earlier today. I know it may seem kind of soon to write an epinion on it but it has already out done the other two that we have owned. When we bought our pc it came with a Sony CDRW CRX100E which I believe is ... read more

  • A fast, well-priced CD Burner

    Apr 16 '03
    Pros: Priced right, BurnProof design, easy to install.
    Cons: Nero software not the easiest to interpret

    Summary: When I purchased my PC, CD-RWs weren't widely available and were pretty pricey, but after a couple of years, I decided I needed a decent bulk storage solution and also wanted a tool to make custom-burned CDs for listening to music. My father had ... read more

  • Awesome burner, but aging

    Feb 08 '02
    Pros: Inexpensive, Reliable, 10x RW, and burn proof. Software is easy
    Cons: 12x isnt quite the fastest out there any more.

    Summary: This is the most reliable/stable cd burner I have ever used. Had it for around a year and a half now, Never burned a coaster, and I burn A LOT of cds. I own quite a few writers and this is by far my favorite. 12x recording isn't really very high end ... read more

  • Decent CD Writer but not for Win 2000 Systems

    Dec 04 '01
    Pros: Decent speed, good buffer underrun protection
    Cons: Wacky drivers cause problems with Win2k

    Summary: Most of the reviews here have done a good job of giving an overview of this CD burner, so I won't retread that territory. Instead, I want to call attention to a problem I encountered using this burner on a Windows 2000 system. We bought this ... read more

  • 24x plus two at a time

    Nov 23 '01
    Pros: Speed, Price, Multi Recorder Support
    Cons: Needs software update out-of-the-box, Nero not user-friendly

    Summary: Today I bought two VeloCD 24x burners. Why? The box said you could install two and burn both simultaneously! I had to remove my DVD drive to free up the ide cable, but this shouldn't be the case for everyone. I couldn't get them ... read more

  • Keep ON Keeping ON

    Nov 01 '01
    Pros: 24X10X40 with 40X rip speed - cool coloring - great functionality
    Cons: not impressed with NERO 5.5

    Summary: All right I will start this off by saying that I have been away from epinions for a long time now and have just decided to return to the scene. With that I will go on with the intentions of this review. Although this section is dedicated to the 12 X 10 X ... read more

  • Perfect for the Audio Philes

    Oct 26 '01
    Pros: Blazing fast speed
    Cons: Problems with the CD-RW formatting software

    Summary: I guess it's just good old brotherly competition. My brother had purchased a computer with a CD-RW drive so that he could store files and create music CD's. His burner speed had a write speed of 4x and a rewrite speed of 2x, with a write speed of ... read more

  • Fast and Stable

    Jul 18 '01
    Pros: Speed, Price
    Cons: Manual

    Summary: I have a budget under 100 for a CDRW. So I searched for a deal and found sony spressa 32/8/4 It is 70 after rebate(buy.com). And was reviewed good here. At the same time, I saw VeloCD 32/12/10 (130 after rebate). and it was reviewed ... read more

  • Good cheap burner

    Jul 15 '01
    Pros: Great price
    Cons: Nero is kind of quirky

    Summary: I just got this burner at CompUSA for $129 with a $50 rebate. That means this drive was only $79!! I had an aging HP 4x burner that didn't give me any trouble but it was quite slow. This TDK rips music at around 20x (not quite their 32x claim but ... read more

  • Is the VeloCD reliable and worthy?

    Jun 28 '01
    Pros: Extremely fast and never had "bad" burn.
    Cons: Trouble with TDK's "mixing" software.

    Summary: I have burned approximately 200 data/audio CD's since purchasing this VeloCD CD burner almost a year ago. I have never made a "CD coaster" for it has a feature called "Burn-proof". I have been extremely pleased with it for I have friends that bought ... read more

  • Rip Roaring Good Time

    Jun 08 '01
    Pros: BurnProof, Nero 5.0 bundled,
    Cons: None yet, will update.

    Summary: Well honestly the only reason I bought this burners is because Buy.com had it on as the special of the day. I obtained my very own 12X/10X/32X for a low low cost of only $120. Honestly, where can you beat that price? I've been waiting for a decent 12X ... read more

  • Blazing Speed and Great Software

    May 14 '01
    Pros: Copy a CD in under 10 min., Very Reliable, Good Software, Reputable Company
    Cons: Nero is not the most user friendly software I've seen

    Summary: I got my burner earlier this year and I have been in love with it ever since. I did quite a bit of research on them, and found this was the one for me. Many companies use cheap components in their burners and TDK doesn't. I also heard that TDK uses ... read more

  • TDK is a Terrific CD-RW Device

    Apr 19 '01
    Pros: Fast, reliable, Burn proof technology, handles every situation
    Cons: No audio cable provided with drive, bundled software good but could be easier

    Summary: I purchased the TDK Velo CD 12x/10x/32x about a month ago after doing extensive research on CD-RWs. In my research I considered Sony, HP, and Plextor. I recommend you check out www.cdrfaq.org for a tremendous amount of information on CD-RWs. ... read more

  • I am amazed

    Apr 17 '01
    Pros: Very Fast, Efficient, Stylish
    Cons: cannot erase .wav files from a cd, other than that, none

    Summary: The TDK Velo 12/10/32 CD-RW Drive is a CD Rewriter that will amaze you forever. I have never owned a cd rewrited until this year. I have read reviews abuot other rewriters and have generally ready that it takes an average of half an hour to write a cd. I ... read more

  • VeloCD 16/10/40

    Mar 26 '01
    Pros: Cost is good.
    Cons: Dosen't work, POOR Tech Support.

    Summary: What a waste. I have the HP CD Writer 8300i 12/8/32 and wanted to upgrade to the Velo 16/10/40. I read all the great reviews on it and bought it today. I have a 1 ghz PC with all the options. I removed my HP and installed the TDK. Didn't work. All ... read more

  • Velo CD experiences on the Macintosh and PC

    Mar 21 '01
    Pros: 12x burning (with burn-proof), Mac and PC compatible, good PC burning software
    Cons: No Mac burning software included, slower than 12x burning on PC

    Summary: I purchased a TDK VeloCD for use with a Macintosh G4 tower ("Sawtooth" model). I chose the VeloCD because it was an affordably priced (with a $50 rebate at the time of purchase) 12x "burn proof" burner. The mechanism used in this drive is almost ... read more
