Summary: This company is a joke!
Review: I have a QPS burner and it has been nothing but trouble. It throws errors all of the time and is basically useless. I have tried to contact the company numerous times for help and technical support and they have never responded. A friend of mine who used to work for a large electronics store told me this company has a reputation for poor product support and customer service.

Summary: Fully capable little box
Review: I needed a CD-RW drive for my iMac and, since I had FireWire connectivity, I went looking for FireWire drives. The QPS drive was the fastest drive available at the time for what I deemed a reasonable price and it had received good reviews so I picked it up.I have not been disappointed. Documentation was well done and connecting the drive and setting it up to burn CDs was a snap. Though the packaging contained third-party software, I chose to use Apple's iTunes to burn my first CD, in order to check on compatibility. The burn was flawless and seemed fast (though I have little basis for comparison) and has played well in several different systems. So for quick, easy CD burning for your Mac, I can highly recommend the QPS drive.

Summary: Quick and Quieter
Review: I recently ordered this drive to replace a Archos MiniCDRW which died one day after warrenty. (...) The drive works like a charm, so quick abd quiet. Using a laptop and being on the go kinda sucks when you need to lug a clumsy sized drive with it too. Size is a little bigger than I hoped (compared to the Discman sized Archos I previously had), but the carry case included helps out to lug it overseas and stuff....
I recommend this to someone that needs portablity.

Review: PLEASE HEED COMMENTS IN OTHER REVIEWS ABOUT POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM QPS! I purchased a very similar QPS external RW drive (QPCDRW321040FL) that performed acceptably for about eight months...and then abruptly died. After determining that it was a hardware problem, I followed instructions that came with the burner to contact the company for information on how to return the drive for repair or replacement under the warranty. I have sent numerous email messages to the customer "service" department, with no reply. The form on the QPS web page for sending requests for customer service doesn't work (!). I called the QPS customer service department during business hours, waited on hold for about an hour and a half, and then was abruptly disconnected without being able to speak to anyone. I've even sent fax messages. No reply AT ALL from the company. I would never have purchased this burner if I had known that QPS had such poor regard for its customers. I STRONGLY recommend avoiding this company and its products if you have alternatives.

Summary: Actually 24x10x40x Model
Review: QPS has released a newer model with faster write speed---Invest P>I am a devoted laptop user and hardcore CD burner. My options for laptops have always been limited to slow write speeds, even for internal models (8x max). I hooked up the QPS to my Dell's 1394 port using a Belkin 6pin to 4 pin FireWire adapter cable. I still had absolutely no trouble with it, setup took about 3 minutes (most of the time was rebooting), and I am burning full music CDs in about 7 minutes. This is an outstanding leap in technology. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: Returned a loud buzzy Iomega Predator and got this instead, and it is much better. Operation is nearly silent, and it burned a 16x CD-R flawlessly while I kept the computer busy doing other work. It is bigger than the Predator but also feels much more solid. There are two versions of this out there: one that embeds a Teac drive (you can see the label through the case) and another that embeds a Plextor drive. Other reviewers have praised the Plextor flavor but I have the Teac and it works great as well. The carrying case it comes with sounds trivial but it is well designed if you need to travel with all the stuff that comes with it (cable, power cord, etc.).

Summary: Why not, go external?!?!
Review: There have been some people leaving reviews for this product saying "why go external? Why go external?" Well look, if you've got a laptop that only has a DVD drive, or just a CD-ROM drive and you want to record your own CDs what do you do or even if you want to copy from one CD to another or some files off of a DVD what then? Also have you thought that installing internals on a desktop on your own would void your warranty, because it does? And if something goes wrong then there you go, you're out of luck cause it's or own fault for cracking the case to put in a product. As for the cost, yes we can easily see that cost is an issue. It's obvious externals will cost more. Also, what about portability. I sure as heck don't want to buy two or three different drives for each computer I'll be using. I could keep going, but but just think before you write. If you don't have anything directly product related, in regard to reviewing, just keep it to yourself. (I would take my own advice, but there are people out there not using these review places as they are designed to be used.)
