GideonTech.com has posted a review on the 48X12X48 CDRW unit from Cendyne.
The drive can sometimes be very noisy during the initial stages of recording, but it dissipates as it moves towards the outer part of the CD. The back has the usual IDE connector, power connector, and analog/digital audio connectors. Opening the drive reveals that it utilizes Ricoh chips, and most likely a similar mechanism to that of Ricoh drives. The drive seems to lack support from software vendors. As of today, February 25th, 2003, the only software found to support the drive are Ahead Nero Burning ROM version 5.5, and Roxio EZ CD Creator. Golden Hawk Technologies CDRWIN does not support the drive.Read more
