Pros: Easily portable, Eventually Intuitive Cons: Hostile to every version of Windows
I don't think my situation is atypical in that I have much more bandwidth at work than I do at home. Until a few weeks ago, my home connection was 56K and my work connection a fat-pipe T1 that I could abuse after hours. Now, my home connection and my...
Pros: Toll free customer support line available 24/7 Cons: Lack of written documentation for reference
Shopping for a "Burner", and being a Compaq computer owner, I needed to purchase a "recorder" that had a USB port adaptability. In addition, I also required easy "plug and play" installation, and technical assistance if...
Pros: reliable, easy to use, inexpensive Cons: a bit slower than more expensive models
Summary: My Sony Spressa CD-Burner gets the job done -- simply and consistently. It also happens to be the least expensive model out there. These two factors add up to satisfaction.
Last Xmas I purchased two of these units, one for my girlfriend, and one for my office. The prospect of portable USB units was quite appealing. Especially for the girlfriend since she has been bouncing between here and there and all over working on...
Pros: Portable, CD Extreme Cons: Can take some tweaking to get to work better.
From reading through some of the other reviews I have noticed that a lot of people are unhappy with their drives. Some Windows users and some Mac users. Below is some advice for them as well as new buyers.
Pros: Easy to Install, Stable Burner Cons: Software is very buggy and unstable
I bought this burner last year after owning just a 2 times.
It's Pros
This burner is very easy to setup and install. From a hardware point of view it's never failed me and I must admit it definately looks pretty neat beside my...
Pros: it eventualy did work Cons: very clunky interface, the install screws up your computer
While I am sure that the vast majority of the people reviewing this burner are PC users, I wanted to throw in my $0.02 about using this on a Mac: Don't. My two biggest problems are with the interface and the way the software interacts with the MacOS,...
I purchased my Sony Spressa about 4 months ago on the advice of the salesman at CompUSA. He told me only good things about it, and since it wasn't the most expensive in the store I figured that he was being honest. I liked it because it plugged into...
Pros: looks nice on my desk Cons: doesn't work as advertised
I purchased this product to save my JPEG files and to use for backup with Quicken and Microsoft Backup. I carefully checked the system requirements before I bought it to make sure that my ThinkPad would work with it.
Pros: Easy to set up & use, hot swappable Cons: Software that comes with unit isn't the industry standard
First off let me say that this unit has never caused a lockup on my machine, and I have never ruined a CD-R or CD-RW. The reason for this is setting up the drive properly. On a Windows machine, you must uncheck the "auto insert notification"...
Gee, where do I begin? I've tried the Sony Spressa USB on 2 different SONY computers and it NEVER worked. Countless calls over a 3 week period to the 24 hour technical support only to be disconnected after waiting and waiting. I did get an email from...
Pros: maybe tech support will call me back someday... Cons: ...but probably not
Well, maybe it'll make a good paperweight. Sure do wish I'd saved that receipt.
The box says it's a USB, macintosh-compatible drive. Turns out that, as far as I can tell, it's actually some sort of bizarre hybrid of USB and SCSI, which...
Pros: Um, it looks good? Cons: It doesn't work very reliably. Hard to setup. Promised software not included
When I got this drive I had this idea. One drive that I could use at work or at home to back up files, organize the songs from my music collection, and generally create CD's when I wanted to. Since all my PC's have USB ports this looked like a great...
