What CD-RW do u guys recommend? I want to be able to burn everything (music/data/vcd/. . .)
PC specs:
Athlon 550, AMD 550, 256 MB ram, crappy motherboard (though it will be replaced soon enough), . . .
I remember a time when most burners would create problems (writing, reading, installing, . . .). I've noticed that most of that is gone. Is there anything I should watch out for?
Thnx in advance
Hope you don't think this is a bad question =)

You know, the cdrw drive is the oldest equipment in my pc, A Ricoh drive running at 12x... Guess it's time soon for an upgrade. This drive's been great though.
Quote:I usually like TDK as well, but I would like to throw out a warning - their newer drives (48x and 40x) are not nearly as good as the old ones. My roommate bought a 48x, and about every third disc he burned was bad. Also, my 12x TDK was ripping cd audio literally five times faster.
It's no wonder then that you can find the TDK 40x and 48x drives for around $100, yet the 32x still costs $150...
lol I should have put that in there that mine is 16x....
Thanks I will remember what you said about there newest ones..

Plextor 16x->24x->40x->Liteon 40x->48x.

Although I haven't ever used it and can't comment on it's quality Yamaha has a 40X burner that'll print labels on the tops of CDs too. That looks awesome.
Check it out: Shweet Drive (You'll need flash www.Macromedia.com)

The new 52x are out.
Lite on has one for 70 bucks

Those Yamaha's don't print on the top... they burn the pattern into the unused portion of the disc. So if you want to use the whole disc, you can't use the labeler. Also, on some discs you can't tell where the burnt areas are (like on black memorex cd's), so the label is rendered useless.
Oh man are serious? That sucks. I take it you own one of those Yamaha's? I did however figure that whatever the solution it would require you to use their media.
Does anyone know of a special printer you can buy that'll put professional looking logos on the tops of disks? Printing out CD labels is a pain in the ass and they never come out right.
Cool thanks for posting the Primera site. You're definetly right about the personal use bit. The cheapest one is $1,039 US.
