Summary: Very Good CD-Writer
Review: I believe this is a very good cd-rw drive, it has JustLink technology to avoid Buffer Underruns, is fast, quiet, excellent to rip audio (MP3s), however the HP software included is a little bit limited, and the package doesn't have an audio cable included, If you have Nero 5.5.5.1 or you can wait a time for another software like CDRWin or WinOnCD to support the device, then you will have a powerful combination of CD-Writer and Software.

Summary: Beware of changes at HP regarding CD-RW
Review: I bought this unit Oct 18, 2001. The unit's laser mechanism failed recently, rendering the drive useless. The drive has had minimal use, 3 recording sessions. While laser failures are common, short warrantees from prominent manufacturers are not. Upon contacting HP tech support I was informed these units only have a 90-day warrantee because HP has decided to exit the CD-RW business and focus solely on DVD offerings. Thus the pricing on their latest CD-RW products is substantially lower in price than previously. It is cheaper to throw this drive away and buy another than to repair it.

Summary: No Problems
Review: I installed this on my 3 year old Gateway with a 350 Mhz PII, and had no problems. It installed perfectly the first time, and I have not yet had a problem with either music or data disks. What more can you ask? I am running Windows 2000 Pro. I think it is a good value.

Summary: Great
Review: This CD-Writer is great. The installation went smoothly even for a newbie like me. The instructions were clear and precise.

I have burned data CDs, and read music CDs. So far it has preformed all of the tasks I require without a hitch.

I recommend this drive, especially for anyone fairly new to installing drives.
