Advantages: Fast, reliable, multifeatured Disadvantages: With only one CDR and one CDRW, I've to go to PC World!
It was about time I got a new CD ROM drive, and I wanted to get both a CD Rewritable drive and a DVD-ROM drive. God bless Ricoh...! No sooner had I realised that the company which brought us the CDRW disc had also produced a combination CDRW and DVD drive, than they went and improved it! Now the new drive, only a bit more expensive, reads CDs at 32x, records at 12x and rewrites at 10x - AND reads DVDs at 8x!!! All in all, that means this drive is ... ...is nowadays, anyway)!
The box includes one CDR and one CDRW disc to practice on, a fine DVD software player and an excellent CD burning software program called Nero, as well as a drag-and-drop CDRW drive feature.
I was momentarily disappointed to find no manual in the package, but to tell the truth, you really don't need one! The software is very user-friendly, with plenty of help, and the drive itself is simple but fast.
DVD playback is unproblematic ...
