Don't bother with Sony drives |
My drive like this stopped working in about 15 days. Which makes you wonder if I just got a dud. (Most likely) But then I start thinking about it and I have had 2 previous single layer models. Both of those died in 2 completely different computers over the span of 3 months each. One of which was a store replacement for the other. But 3 sony drives on 2 different computers, all dead. This new one was in a spanking new system I just built with it. Now I have 2 Plextor Dual Layer DVD burners in both of those systems and they have worked flawlessly ever sense.
I would suggest you stay away from Sony drives. Get anything else. Doesn't have to be what I have. I think anything else should do. (but I understand Sony drives are often just remarked LightOn's. Something to think about.) I'm 3 for 3 on Sony and 0 for 2 using other brands. Seems like a pretty lousy gamble buying Sony DVD burners to me. |

stopped doing +Rs after six months |
| This drive worked perfectly for about 6 months, at which time it suddenly lost the ability to burn anything properly in DVD+R format. Every single DVD+R format disc I now burn has serious pixelation and freezing problems (oddly, this doesn't happen with DVD-Rs). I wasted about an hour waiting for and dealing with Sony customer service, only to have the rep tell me that the first four brands of blank media I rattled off were "inferior." When I asked him which ones were NOT inferior, the list he gave me included one brand that I had also had recent problems with (and didn't mention at first). Basically, Sony has made an inferior product that does not withstand the test of time, and is now trying to weasel its way out of a one-year warranty. I will not buy another Sony product if I have a choice. |
