TDK veloCD CD-RW Burner

Pros: Reliable, fast
Cons: None so far

I had a Acer cd re writer for a year and just wasn't happy with the results I had from it. It seemed like every time I tried to record a cd or duplicate anything I would get to the last song or bit of data and the re writer would pop the cd out and tell...

Pros: Plays and records the CD+G specification as well as most others.
Cons: Is incompatible with some motherboards and has generally flaky stability.

I purchased the TDK VeloCD (8x4x32) for one reason and one reason only. To play and record karaoke disks that are encoded using the CD+G audio/data specification. In case you are unfamiliar with CD+G, it stands for compact disc plus graphics and is used...

Pros: Speed. Looks. $50 rebate. Burnproof. Documentation. Box contents
Cons: Nero seems buggy. No audio cable.

I chose this burner mainly because of the price after rebate. Only $79.99 after $50 rebate at Best Buy. But is also had some good reviews on the internet.

In the box there is a video to help you install, as well as paper documentation and a...

Pros: An economical CD Burner, easy installation video helps you out step-by-step
Cons: Ususally skips when it rips (that ryhmes!) at 8x

For the longest time I’ve always wanted my very own CD writer, and finally I received one this past Christmas. So far, I’ve only burned one CD instead of the hundreds I was planning on recording when I dreamed about owning one (it’s kinda ironic when...

Pros: Easy install, reliable performance
Cons: 2 MB Buffer

With the number of CD's I burn on a fairly consistent basis, I went for the TDK VeloCD 16x10x40 burner with 32x audio rip and BURN-Proof. It is an internal IDE unit that I bought brand new. The installation was easy, but then again this is my third CD...

Pros: CD-Audio ripping speed!
Cons: I have problems with CDs made at the higher speeds

Well, I was in Costco shopping for a new CD writer after my old Smart & Friendly CD-RW became less than smart or friendly. I got hooked on making my own custom-mix audio CDs of songs from my CD collection. Most of the CDs of have only have 2-3...

Pros: Fast and relatively cheap, buffer underrun protection
Cons: Write speed not accurate

I was using a USB CD burner that only only ran at 4X so I decided to upgrade to a 32x speed burner. The TDK seemed like the best solution and it was pretty cheap ($149 after rebate). Set up was easy but the Nero software it comes bundled with did not...

Pros: Price, reliability
Cons: included software

When I bought this cd burner I made the decision to buy it entirely based on price and the fact that it was one of the fastest being sold. I probably should have done more research, but for the price, I feel that I came out well. I only have one major...

Pros: Fast burning action, solid Nero software package, easy installation, reasonably priced
Cons: In-CD re-writing software could be better.

When CD-Writers first entered the mainstream several years ago, I rushed out and bought myself an 2X HP CD-Writer. It was great being able to burn CDs for myself and others but the experience was so long and painful to get a good CD burn that I quickly...

Pros: easy install, buffer, CD-RW or CD-R, FAST BURN - 1.5 minutes, NERO!
Cons: CD-RW recording traps memory

I bought this on sale at Fry's (Outpost) and love it. It took me a minute to figure out how to take out my old regular CD, but I figured it out on my own. Once that was out - the instructions for putting the TDK in was a bit confusing. However, it only...
