Memorex the best.

Advantages: Good quality recording with excellent results
Disadvantages: None. Perhaps being a brand name makes them more expensive?

...With writeable CD's offering so much choice in today's market, you can afford to be a bit choosy when buying the media you want. Nearly every company that once offered audio tapes now offers a range of recordable CD's. However, it does not stop there. Most technology companies that make Computer hardware have taken it on themselves to offer recordable CD's too. But they are all different standards with some more suitable to certain tasks than others. One of the better writeable CD manufacturers on the market today are Memorex. Let me tell you about Memorex CD's. Firstly, they offer an entire range of recordable media. First off are its CD-R's which are "one shot wonders". This means they can be recorded on once only. If it goes wrong during the recording process, the Disc is lost. Next up are their CD-RW which are...

Review of Memorex CD-R 700 MB 8x

Memorex, oh yes

Advantages: Reliable
Disadvantages: I could have brought them cheaper elsewhere

...I was looking for some CDR's to back up my hard drive now its full of important work. I went down to my local computer shop where they stocked a variety of brands. Chocie is important but not when your in a hurry so I decided to pick a brand I was familar with. I have heard of Memorex before and have purchase VHS' from them before and they worked fine. Going on previous expirences of memorex products I thought they would be O.K. I brought the pack of CDR's for £19.99 for a pack of 25 which I thought was quite reasonable until I was told about online stores doing them for cheaper. The CDR's come on a spindel which is useful to keep the dust off them. Each CDR can hold 700mbs of data and 80 minutes of music. The spidel says that you can record up to 24x speed by my writer only does 4x. The spidel is made of black plastic and is pretty...

Review of Memorex CD-R 700 MB 8x

Memorex-cellent value 12x CD writer

Advantages: Cheap and comparable to the more expensive Plextor
Disadvantages: Easy CD is maybe not as good as WinOnCD and support is vague

...Are you fed up waiting for that dodgy copy of you mates cd to burn? Tired of watching how slow your pathetic, unbadged, 2 speed cdwriter spits out those copies? Or maybe you're lukcy, and have a 4 speed cdwriter. Maybe even an 8 speed one. Now that's not bad now, is it - what is that, around 10 mins a cd? That's not bad. Now consider what it would be like to burn cd's in around 6 minutes. Now I'm not trying to be like that serial murderer blokey out of There's Something About Mary - you know, the one who goes on about his idea for the "8 minute abs video", only to be told "What if someone comes out with '7 minute abs'?" - cos I know that you're going to tell me there are faster drive around, before you say it! ;-) The drive I am writing this opinion about is the Memorex TwelveMaxx 1032. It is a 12 speed CD writer drive, which is...

Review of Memorex CD-RW drive

Memorex Trimaxx200 DVD-CDRW

Advantages: Well price multi system
Disadvantages: Need a good graphic card with TV output

...Hi all, I would like to tell you about a fantastic product that really is Plug-&-Play, it's a CD Player - CD read/writer and a DVD Player all rolled into one. The Memorex Trimaxx 200 is a mid range product in the DVD/CD range and although the price may be fairly extravagant for some at a little over £200.00, I believe it was well worth it.The write capabilities are great at 6x because anything other than standard data just won't transfer safely above a 2x speed, and as for read i reckon 24x is more than fast enough for anything the software merchants throw at us, add to that the DVD playing side of things and you can't miss. I've watched quite a few films via this player with no problem whatsoever, and what's more i can watch the film s via my computer if i so desire. the only let down really was that i had to purchase a better...

Review of Memorex CD-362E

Memorex CDR 80. Simply the best.

Advantages: Good quality recording, low failure rate, cheap
Disadvantages: No boxes

...No one is going to turn down the chance of a free collection of MP3s are they? Not if they are sound of mind or like the tunes on the little silver disc. So when it comes to getting those lovely little tunes from your home PC (or work for that matter) into a format that you can play on your hi-fi, you need a good CD. I have experimented for about 18 months with different brands and have now come up with a winner. The winning product? Memorex CD-R80. Why? Well, I have tried them all, (Sony, Kodak, Verbatim,PC World Own Brand) and this one beats them all hands down. Firstly, Their size. The ones I use , The CD-R80 are 80 minutes of pure uncompressed Music. Thats nearly 13 hours of MP3s!!! Normally, the 74 minute CDs are long enough for your needs but you will find more and more record companies...

Review of various - blank, recordable CD's

An excellent writer

Advantages: efficient, affordable
Disadvantages: slow re-write speed

...Memorex have a reputation for quality and this shines through with their CD writer / re-writer the 4420. Purchased just over a year ago as a solution to my back-up requirements and for the production of CD Catalogues for clients this piece of hardware has been invaluable. It is both fast and efficient. 32X4X2 are its speeds. The only drawback is that the re-write is a little slow and the disks take an age to format but once formatted shouldn't need doing again. I have not yet encountered any problems with reading or writing even on budget priced media. The drive stands up well to all other use. It plays audio CD's without problem and runs software, again without error. The product came bundled with Adaptec Easy CD Creator, Direct CD, MGI PhotoSuite and Take 2 (a back-up program). Priced at £129 when I bought it I think it is...

Review of Memorex - CDRW-4420

Good media, reasonably fast writing speed

Advantages: good value for money and good writing speed
Disadvantages: none so far

...Value: I spotted this on the 7dayshop.com website of £6.79 for 10 delivered. Good price ! It might seem too good to be true so I cross-checked it on the official Memorex website. Initially I went to the memorex.co.uk website and choose 'shop' option. A new windows opened and then I chose from the side menu 'CD/DVD' under 'media'. There is only a 5/pack option! I did a search and exactly the same results. A fake? Not ! When I did a search on the main site without selecting the 'shop' option, There is a 10/cake box package option available and it looks exactly like the one that 7dayshop was selling. It is only a glitch with the memorex website. Price comparison to other brands: Verbatim DVD+RW 8x 10/pack £13 delivered from Amazon marketplace (twice as much however expected to be excellent media) Imation DVD+RW 8x showbox 5...

Review of Memorex DVD+RW 4.7 GB 4x

The Need For Speed

Advantages: Cheap & Very Reliable, Fast Speed
Disadvantages: None

...I have used around 400 + of these particular CD-R's now and find them one of the most economical and reliable CD-R disc available. The Company Memorex has been going for a number of years. I even remember them as a kid making good old fashioned tapes. They are a mid range buyer level more than anything else. The Discs are suitable for anyone who wants a permanent media to store data on. -R means write once allowing you to only write the information to the disc once. Although some software programs support multi session allowing you to add data to the disc. I use a lot of CD-R discs. So I needed a disc I could rely on to store my data safely, to have good read/write ability with multiple burners and players and be light on my pocket. I also burn alot so the quicker the disc the better. I think I have definitely found this...

Review of Memorex CD-R 700 MB 8x

The kids went potty over this mouse and mat!

Advantages: Makes using the computer even more fun for kids!
Disadvantages: None

...I gave this mouse and mat to my cousin (Sophie) who is 9 years old. She is absolutely barmy about Harry Potter and her mother had been chatting to me about how they are encouraged more and more these days at school to use computers. She also told me that Sophie's teacher had mentioned that Sophie didn't seem very ethuisiatic about using PC's, so I thought this would be a perfect pressie. The one I bought came in a lovely circular Harry Potter metal presentation case. This is roughly 4/5"s in width. This can also be used to store other things like hair bobbles, small toys etc. The mouse is smaller than an adult sized one and measured roughly 3 and a half inches by 2 and a half. The mouse is by memorex and should be used with a PC that has Windows 95 or later and the wire connects to the back of the PC in the normal way. The lead...
