Cheap CD Rw

[djkeeping]

I have finally given up on my HP 7200i coaster maker and decided to invest in a new CR RW.

I don't need great speed - I only have a K6 2 550 - and am looking at spending not that much.

Ebuyer have artecs for £22 and BTC's , LiteOns and LG's starting about ten more.

Anyone have any opinions they'd like to share...

Thanks as ever

Darren

Ahh...yes, the 7200i. One burner I will never ever miss.

So far I like my TDK VeloCD 48x24x48 burner. The price was right at about $79 after rebates six months ago.

there was at my local store a cdrw for $20. (after rebates of course). Cendyne i think was the manufacturer. At this price, would it be acceptable to pass up on a little quality for $?

LiteOn...... cheap price, high quality!

Correct me someone if i'm wrong but I think the Cendyne drives are based (or rebadged) on Lite-On drives.

is Cendyne drives based on Lite-On? Does this mean they are acceptable quality? The sale is now over at the store but they are having another sale and i told my boss i'd go out and get her a burner sometime this week.

<edit>

nevermind, i guess this is why everyone always says there is a search button for the forum for a reason

yes, Cendyne is a lite-on drive. Mine is recognized as a lite-on by windows. Anyway, yes, its a lite-on.
