Q: I know that Plextor makes the best CD-RW drives, Im not debating what I want to know is this: you
Do people think Plextor is better than other drives, its worth the extra price?
I know that Plextor is the best . but my Yamaha 8×8 was $ 70 (Canadian) less than the Plextor 8×4, and nearly $ 200 less than the Plextor 12×10. I bought Yamaha, 20 jewels and a gold Kodac CDRs ATI TVWonder and it took me less than the Plextor 12/10 should buy themselves. And I have money, Im going to use an optical mouse to buy next week (they were sold out) 0.
Plextor are nice, but they are not worth that much more to do you guys think me.
What?
Best Answer: It depends, frankly. If you have a laptop the SSD may or may not be a good option for you. For one, they are expensive, and you will get very little storage space.
However, you will find your computer boots almost instantly, and (if you're clumsy like me) you will find SSD's to be relatively indestructible. Additionally, your battery life will be significantly extended since there are no moving parts.
That said, don't buy a mac. Overpriced and underpowered, most students I see are unhappy after a few months with them. Mostly because they are very poorly supported by customer service, and really have to fight to get anything done.

Re:Get the SCSI version since he has the card already. It will make a good match up with the 40x plextor cdrom.
Quality if excelent. We have a plexwriter 4x at work with a 12plex to go with it. going on 4 years on burning and barely a hicup.

Re:Thanks for the input guys. It was a spotaneous purchase for me
and the plextor was out of stock, besides I don't plan to use it to terribly much, so I think the plextor would be overpriced for me, but I'm actually asking for a friend of mine, he plans to do alot of burning and wanted to know.
He's decided on the Plextor.
Now his question is, should he get the 12/10 IDE or the 12/4 SCSI
He doesn't really care about ReWrite, he just wants to know if 12x IDE w/ BurnProof is better than 12x SCSI w/o.
He's got an IBM 75GXP, Maxtor DiamondMax40+ and Zip Drive on IDE
He's got a Quantum Atlas V and Pioneer 303S (6x) DVDRom and Plextor 40x CDROM on SCSI right now.
So he's got both IDE and SCSI and probably will have for a while, he can't decide which burner to get.
Edit: He had a 4×4 HP SCSI before and managed to kill it in just over 2 years…so that's a concern to, is the SCSI Plextor better quality than the IDE?

Re:It is only worth it if you're doing alot of copying. Yamaha is still a very good burner. As for myself I only have a Plextor because I want the best.

Re:Plextors are especially worth it if you ever want to copy something you're not supposed to copy.
I had a Yamaha before I got my Plextor burner and it was adequate for most burning. But I decided the Plextor was worth it…and I don't regret it

Re:plextor is not only a high qualtiy burner but also has all the black book features I know of. overburn, is one i can think of and I know I can use clone cd with my plextor (12/10/32 ide) if I use it as a sourc and destination. On top of that it rips audio faster than almost any other cd reader that is rated at the same speed. As for the higher price I don't think plextor drives are that much more expensive. i believe u can get a sony 8/4/32 ide drive for around 150 if you look realy hard. You can get the plextor 8/4/32 ide for around 175 I believe.

Re:Plextor IS the best and IS worth the extra price IMHO
Re:Plextor is the sony of burners. Always good quality but high priced. Depends what you are gonna use it for if its really worth it.
Re:My friend has a SCSI Plextor CDRW and a CDROM and he can burn straight from one to the other. He says that he has made three coasters in the last year. To me that says they are worth the money… Good Luck.
