The GD-8000 appeals to a growing market of home and corporate PC users who require high capacity, flexible storage solutions. The drive extends the performance barrier for DVD-ROM drives with 16x DVD, 40x CD-ROM speed data transfer rate. The GD-8000 enables users to play full-length feature films and access a new range of data intensive games and multimedia titles offered on the DVD format. By using software to change the recording format, the GD-8000 can be made read compatible with media recorded by DVD camcorder. The drive offers high performance and reliability with a low initial investment. The GD-8000 is also cost-effective to run with a favorable cost per megabyte ratio to other optical technologies.

...*Description/Introduction*
The Hitachi CML174SXW-B is currently one of the highest specification LCD TFT monitors on the LCD market. I purchased one from CRS Solutions in December of 2002, and I am highly impressed.
The monitor itself is 17" of pure joy, housed in a top quality, sleek black casing.
The looks of the monitor are absolutely superb, and it is excellent for those just wishing to add a bit of style to their desktop.
LCD monitors are becoming ever more popular, and it looks like this particular monitor, and others of its ilk could be the monitors to break the stereotype of slow response, blurry LCD's.
*Specification*
The important bits:
*Screen Size: The screen size is 17 inches, this, unlike CRT (normal) monitors is its true viewable size, measured from top right to bottom left, diagonally. Unlike...

Advantages: Quite, low power consumption, high capacity Disadvantages: Expensive
...I have been using a Hitachi TravelStar for a long time now, I have had not problems with it and I have given it a good run for the price I paid for it.
I originally started out with the 80gb model of this hard disk. I had absolutely no problems with it. (I now have the 100gb model as the laptop it was in was broken in a car accident).
I had the 80gb model for a year and never gave me any trouble. It was:
· Fast
· Reliable
· Quite
· Super low power consumption
· Had a quick spin up time
· Very quick seek time
· Standard 5 year warranty
· Very helpful warranty/customer support
Hitachi's customer warranty claims support is like no other that I have come across before. You go onto there website, fill out a warrant claim form; package the device (hard disk in my case) in the way they require. Once you have sent it to them...
