Summary: Can't recall when I've been this jazzed about a product...
Review: After a disastrous experience with a Sony Digital Relay drive, I was ready to give up on burning CDs, convinced by Sony's technical support that my four-year-old computer wasn't up to the task. Plextor proved us wrong, quickly and decisively. It took less than ten minutes to hook up the drive and install the software, and since then I've burned many music and data CDs
-- at a variety of speeds -- without a single coaster. It's fast, easy-to-use, and flawless!

Summary: Great CD Burner!
Review: All the reviews are true! This is a great machine. I personally like the convenience and portability of an external drive so I went with this model. So easy to use too. Comes with Roxio software which works fine. One thing to remember though is that it won't run with the first edition of Windows 98. You need Win 98 SE. My computer is about three years old, is a Pentium II 400 mhz with 128 megs of RAM. No problem running the burner. Just plug this little dude in and start burning!

Summary: Sensational for novice
Review: As one who is not particularly technically sophisticated, I have been amazed and delighted by this product. It is remarkably easy to use as is the software that comes with it. Every CD I have burned with it has been perfect. My primary use is to make CDs of my digital pictures and it has been so helpful in preserving space on my hard drive. I am using a Belkin USB2 adaptor card with an HP Omnibook notebook computer. I am a true novice but was up and running with the PlexWriter in just a few minutes and have had consistent good results.

Summary: I am fully impressed and happy w/ this product
Review: I am writing this review 'cause I want to make sure others can also enjoy this wonderful product.I bought this product two days ago and got everything working within 10 minutes, a true "Plug-and-play", I burned three CDs w/ different speed, first w/ 4X, then 12X, and then 24X. They all worked perfect! Then I burned a few more CDs using 24X, and things just worked very well, I am very happy w/ this toy! I want to thank to the guy who wrote his review earlier, and his good experience helped me make up my mind on buying this one, and I was a little bit nervous though, 'cause it was the only review there. Now, another happy user, and hope this helps those who are still evaluating their buying choice.

Summary: Very Satisfied
Review: I bought Plextor because they are in this business for long time, and I am happy with the product.
I opened the box and plug into my labtop using USB 1.1 and created a data CD. I was surprise by how quick it burned.
Not a single problem. I also liked the softwares in the package.
Very useful and friendly.

Summary: This drive is not for Macs.
Review: I bought the Plextor because of the good reviews that I read on Amazon's site. It must be a great machine but I could not get it to work on my Mac. It is advertised as a Mac product but the enclosed manual was mostly PC based and the accompaniing software was entirely for PC. So I went to CompUSA, bought Toast Titanium 5 which is the most widely used burner software for Mac ..., went home and wrestled with it some more and finally...called Plextor tech Support. Toast is incompatable with the Plextor CD-RW! So I'm packing it back to Amazon today.
I went to Mac Warehouse and bought a CD-RW by LaCie, which is a very Mac friendly company.

Summary: Amazing burner
Review: I bought this burner about a week ago and I've been extremely impressed with it. I've already burned about 20 flawless CD's (both audio & data). First of all, Plextor is one of the top brands in CD burner technology. This model lives up to the name with solid construction and top quality. Secondly, the BURN-Proof technology ensures you don't get the dreaded "buffer underrun" problem that is so prevalent with other burners that are USB-based. I've created countless coasters with other burners I tried because of that problem.....a problem that is non-existent with this machine. An important thing to note is that if you're running USB 1.1, you will only be able to burn at 4x speed (which is the max throughput capabilities of USB 1.1). So, you'll need an upgrade to USB 2.0 (either via a USB 2.0 interface card which you can buy separately or waiting for your OS vendor to release a USB 2.0 driver update) to enjoy the full benefits of 24x speed burns. I can't say enough good things about this burner after experiencing the headaches with low-quality burners from other vendors...

Review: I first bought a different external CD writer and all I can say is that I have an extensive collection of coasters and few working CDs. I thought the problem was ME UNTIL I bought THIS DRIVE. I have not had a single problem or made a single coaster. This drive is brilliantly EASY to use and WORKS like a dream.
