Customer Reviews

Excellent drive.

Positives;

1. The default bezel for the drive is black unlike product picture. Comes with beige bezel but you have to attach it yourself.
2. It comes with a red sata cable, not L shaped.
3. It burns dvd single layer quietly compared to last liteon burner.

Negative;

1. Comes with really crappy Nero Essentials software that makes you purchase mpeg encoder/decoder.
2. Nero software sucks to begin with.
3. The manual for the drive is for IDE version and not SATA version.

SATA Drive
What can I say, it works. I plugged it in, and it was recognized at boot up, and works like a traditional IDE. I have no idea if it's faster, smarter, or whatever, but it freed up an IDE port for an additional hard drive.

Short Lived
Amazon had sold this item for $33.27 and it died after 2 months. No warranty,so I was out of luck.
