Customer Reviews

Performs well, good support, one glitch
I discovered that the drive worked fine with DVDs but not CDs. Plextor support was excellent (returning e-mails on weekend evenings, even).

It turned out to be a known hardware defect. One annoying downside is that return shipping for warrantee support is paid for by the customer, even though the fault was with Plextor (not that this kind of return policy is unusual).

Great burner
It's fast!. With 4x media like TDK you can burn at 8x (DVD+R only). I like the option of having multiple formats, and with Plextor quality, that's even better!

Excellent Burner
I got this burner for christmas and its been flawless. I got a 25 pack of 4x Memorex DVD+Rs and I haven't made a coaster yet. It burns the memorex 4x at 8x speeds! Takes me around 4-8 minutes to burn a disk. Plus plextor has a very good reputation and are always updating firmware to keep up to date with the lastest DVD media.
