Conclusions
After all the testing
on this drive, it showed us that these DVD/CD-RW combos are not much
different than having two separate drives. The DVD picture was
very nice, the read time and load times were also very fast.
The burns were done
perfectly, the CD-R and CD-RW we used read fine in the Samsung drive
and also in a Hitachi and Ricoh drive.
If you are in the
market for a space saving drive that can do both DVD and burn your
favorite CDs, this is the drive for you! It is quiet and gets the
job done for a remarkable price. A big thanks to Samsung
for providing us with this great sample!
Pros:
- Fast and quiet drive
- Great manual
- IDE cable included
- Nice software package
- 2 cd-r/rw media included
Cons:
- Would have been better if there
was a larger buffer
- Or, inclusion of burn-proof
technology to prevent buffer under-runs.
