Review: I saw this in an add a while back, so naturally, I asked for it for my birthday. I had just gotten a new computer for my graduation that didn't come with a CD-RW drive, so I knew I had to get one. Installation of this product is a breeze, there are easy instructions (luckily there are pictures, otherwise you would never find English anywhere!) that show you just what to do. The software that came with mine was great, I have had no problems or complaints. There is no noise, other than what it takes to spin the disk around, I can only tell it is working because I see the green light blinking! Plus, it being a 40x/12x/48x drive means that you can use this for your regular CD drive because it is so fast: 48x! Here is one thing that I have realized: in order to get the maximum speed from CD-RW drives, you need to have fast CD-R or CD-RW disks, or they don't burn anywhere near as fast as they are labeled. I certainly recommend purchasing this fantastic Sony product, but get fast disks, or you will get mad that it is slow and end up blaming the drive!Note: Any drive will burn slow if the disks aren't the speed of the drive. I advise you to get CD-R and CD-RW disks labeled 40x(CD-R) and 12x(CD-RW).

Review: This drive has performed great since it was purchased. I have not had to waste a disc on a bad burn yet. I get consistent burn rates (approximately 40X), along with read (40X-48X) and re-writes (12X). The drive is relatively quiet compared to other ATAPI CD-RWs with simlar statistics. All in all, the CRX195A is a good buy, and can generally be found for a good price.

Summary: The drive is great, the bundled software could be improved.

Review: This is a great CD-RW drive. Consistent, quiet, and reliable. Installation was problem free. Nice price too...The software the CD-RW comes with is only a trial version which I guess is OK since the price of the package would have been higher if it were a full version. ....

Review: This product was great once I bought it. It just didn't quite fit my needs. But I would reccomend this product to anyone. It backs up the SONY name!
