5 out of 5 stars Great unit   December 29, 2008
I bought this unit for its 90 copy capacity. I've used it about 10 times and have had no problems. Don't use the "free" software. That's a gimmick


3 out of 5 stars Good product   November 23, 2008
Good hardware. No problems at all 40x cd's 12x DVD's. Software is DVD lite (Nero), clunky and not complete. The video part of the software hits you up to buy the upgrade immediately. I guess I get to keep the CD/DVD burning software.


1 out of 5 stars Dead On Arrival   November 22, 2008

Unfortunately when I received this internal drive it was DOA so I cannot review it at this time. I expected very good performance, since I am satisfied with the external version of this same drive which I also own. I am only rating this drive as one star because there is no other option to assign when you receive a DOA product.


3 out of 5 stars burner works   November 12, 2008
the dvd burner works well. The only problem i have with the burner is the software that comes with it. i have loaded and deleted the soft ware 3 times. each time i load the soft ware is freezes up my microsoft word program. when i delete the included software my works works great.


5 out of 5 stars Simple and Dependable   November 3, 2008
I am constantly making slideshows for our family and friends,and when my DVD burner died, I was at a loss as to what to do next. I ordered this burner on a friend's recommendation. When it arrived, I was hesitant about installing it (I have ZERO skills in that area!) But I followed the diagram, took my computer cover off, and within a few short minutes, I had replaced the burner and was up and running again. In the past three weeks, I've made three slideshows and am working on a fourth one, and so far, it has been very dependable --- no glitches, whatsoever. I would definitely recommend this burner to anyone who needs an affordable, dependable burner for their computer.
