QPS Que! USB Drive CD-RW Burner

Pros: Toast software, reliable, quiet
Cons: Slow, bad tech support, sensitive

My first burner was a Smart and Friendly 4x12. I bought it in 1997 and had a flawless record with it, until the internal catch that holds the carriage door open failed. Since S&F was in their dying throws, I couldn't get it fixed, and took a chance on...

Pros: See review for complete list
Cons: See review for complete list

I thought that after reading several of the quite mixed reviews on this product I would toss in my two cents worth, and say that, in my experience, QPS Inc.’s Que! drive has worked quite well and been pretty much hassle-free, once I worked through some...

Pros: good value, good looking, good support
Cons: USB???

Well when my husband told me to pick out what I wanted for my birthday, I decided to replace my old Zip drive with a more stable medium. I decided I needed a CDR... I did some comparison pricing, read some reviews and decided on the QPS-Inc. QUE!...

Pros: carrying case, perfect for the imac
Cons: slower than advertised, expensive, breakdowns, bubbly form

Advertised as the first and only CD-RW drive for the ever popular IMAC, the 'QUE' was the obvious and only salvation for my electronic desires. Like all Mac users I often feel isolated and alone in a world when most 'cool' peripherals are either only...

Pros: True Plug and Play, works on both PCs and Macs, comes with a carrying case
Cons: Somewhat slow compared to internal drives

We use a QPS Que! USB CD-RW at work when we need to bun a CD from a laptop computer. I should start out by saying that ours has a grey/white color scheme, not the iMac blue, and that it is advertized for both PCs and Macs.

We almost...

Pros: iMac compatible, Toast software
Cons: slow with a high failure rate

We bought three of the Que! USB drives for some iMacs and a G3. The price seemed attractive, the styling wasn't as bad as many of the "iAccessories" that seem to be everywhere and Toast was bundled with the drive.

One of the drives...

Pros: price is right!
Cons: none found yet!

I recently purchased an iMac 350 so it was time to get rid of my old SCSI cd burner as it just didn't work well with my SCSI to USB adapter. I sold it to a SCSI friend of mine and ordered the Que! CD-RW. When it arrived an I opened the box, I found the...

Pros: PC/Mac compatibility, ease of installation, drivers included
Cons: Packet writing: low success rat and doesn't report errors. Mac: failed 100% at 4x.

At my company, we need to burn CDRs to ship with our products, and most of the time I'm told 5 minutes before the product ships that I've got to get a CD burned. Well, last week our CDR writer died at the worst possible moment. What was I to do? I...

Pros: Nice to look at
Cons: Bad to burn with

I have to use this piece of machinery with a blue and white G3 a few times a week at work and let me tell you what a hassle it has been!

The Discribe software that came with it about a dozen cd-r's into coasters so my boss purchased Toast at...

Pros: Not as expensive as other USB drives
Cons: Fails to write discs frequently, cables don't plug in securely

I bought this drive about four months ago to go with my iMac. Unfortunately I found it to be disappointing, not really worth the price, but since other USB CD-R alternatives are more expensive, you get what you pay for. The "4x writing speed"...

Pros: Seems easy enough to use. Good price.
Cons: Breaks easily. Nonexistent customer service.

"Surely, you jest," you're thinking. No, we really did throw our money away on this one.

We bought our burner in June, 2000. By July it broke. By January they finally got back to us about it. On January 23, we still don't have an operational...

Pros: USB, Fast, great bundled software
Cons: None

I purchased my Que Drive for my first iMac and have loved it ever since!!! I now have a G4 and it still is the perfect compliment to my system! Burning Audio CDs to play @ home/work or in the car is simple and fun. Great sound quality too!
...

Pros: Stylish, Portable
Cons: Not as fast as boasted

I purchased this drive at the same time as my blue and white G3 for obvious color-coated reasons. Of course, all must note that it is actually the original teal-ish imac blueberry, not the newer blue.
ok, cosmetics aside. i had a whole lot of...

Pros: 4x write, 4x rewrite, 8x read, USB easy compatibility, fast, stylish, absolute must for a powerPC MAC.
Cons: Not as fast read speed as internal SCSI drive.

I'll start out by saying first, the main reason I got the Que CD-RW drive is because I have an iMAC, but my opinion on the drive quickly changed. This CD-RW performs great, it looks great and it is a powerhouse of a CD-RW. After purchasing this...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Unreliable and unsupported.

I purchased this drive about a year and a half ago because of the price. Unfortunately, the entire experience has been a waste of time and money. The drive never was able to write CD's, and I've never once been able to contact the manufacturer's...
