Hows this drive compare to others?
One of the other reviews on epinions said this drive was not reliable. This is not the case with mine. I have never had any problems with it. It is a great drive and pretty fast. The only problem I have to say is that there is some kind of conflict with my DVD drive, my Voodoo 3500 and my TV. When I play DVDs from my computer to my TV, they come on Black & White on the TV. I can't figure out why, I believe its eithier this DVD drive or the TV because I have contacted Voodoo and asked them.
I like this drive so much because I have found that it works well with all kinds of CDs, DVDs, and CDRs. Other drives often have given me a lot of trouble for no reason; Especially with CD-R burned CDs.
What's it come with?
This drive came with Funk and Wagnall's Encyclopedia and RealMagic Hollywood Plus. Hollywood Plus is a great proram to play back DVDs and hasnt given me much trouble eithier. It also came with the game Zork Grand Inquisitor, which is a very addicting game.
