- But you don`t get very much for $150...
- I would prefer a slower but GOOD drive. An other idea is to wait a few
- days or buy a good drive for $200.
-
- The only good (available) drives are NEC`s 5xx series...
- and maybe Plextor4x (not 6!).
-
- Additional I wouldn`t buy a CHEAP drive like Quantum-Maveric, Lightning
- or so...they`ve got less cache than 4 year old drives...and they are
- extremly SLOW :-((
-
- NEC4xi (501) and 511 are remanufactured since a few weeks now and they
- aren`t expensive this time, IMHO.
- problems: energie consumtion up to 20watts, CDDA-Sampling a little
- complicated but very good in quality
-
- PS: I`m not working for NEC or so. I was looking for a good Reader
- for a friend...and the only one remaining was NEC.
- I liked Toshiba 3501B, too. But it`s sold off...
- Anybody out there with Plextor4x?!
