Starting Sunday, Apr 24, OfficeMax is advertising the HP 52X32X52 CD-RW internal drive for $9 after $30 MIR. Sku is 2086-6350. Not finding this online so it may be in-store only. You might want to check your local store to see if it's in stock. The ad is available for viewing at the OfficeMax site.
 
also...there is a staples 10 off 20 coupon online/instore. if ur OM takes the coupon like it should this will be -$1 🙂
 
Why wait till sunday? Get one now if you want. It has been priced at $39.00 - $30 rebate for 2 weeks now....I bought one 11 days ago.
 
I was in OM on wednesday, and they had these marked down AR already.

They had about 6 of them out on the clearance table at the Tacoma Mall, WA location

Thanks for the information. I don't have an OMax locally and saw this in their upcoming ad.

Search the HD forum for staples, you'll find it. It's a game you play for 2 or 3 minutes, then the coupon pops up.

Except that they stopped giving the coupons about the time that thread was posted.
 
I didn't know it was a rebate.

I stopped by last night to grab one with the intent of getting the price adjusted to the "Sale" price I thought started today.

This beats the no-name burner in speed and quality I got from OM a year or two back for $5.

Are they all black?

I didn't notice.

I got a black one.

mine is . . . i think so.

Pretty good deal . . . got mine today. . . . i needed Nero 6.X [included] and figured i could upgrade my "old" TDK 48x for $10 .. . . it's R-W speed is pretty slow and my old one can always go in a friend's build.

The best CD reWriter deal i ever got was here - also a HP [12x] for $10 after MIR - a couple of years ago. It came with two or three months of unlimited mp3 d/loads from e-music. . . . . i musta got at least 150 full CDs (i haven't completely listened to them all as yet - almost)

thanks, OP
:thumbsup:

HP cdrw drive are crap. Crap out like 6 months of burning.

HP dosnt make the drives. These are liteon drives which are awsome.

You obviously know absolutly nothing about PC hardware. Thanks for showing us all your utter lack of knowledge.
 
there is a posted coupon link over at f*tw*llet.com. 🙂
was not able to get the coupon to fly at three buffalo ny area stores so i bit the $10 and got it for my new build
 
what you guys use cd-r for? music? porn?
I don't use cd anymore ever since the invention of dvd
actually i'd threw away some 200+ cd after converting them to DVD format
from 200 to less then 30 dvd
AWESOME

I'm looking forward to DVD-DL, actually no twice the space would not make sense
Blue-Ray would be perfect but looks like another year or so before it is released then another 3 years before it becomes a standard like dvd.. hell HD-DVD is the next best thing since cd was invented

cool, I like hp... I remember when I used to get cendyne for $10... now it's HP 🙂


I remember I was also to get a cendyne for $10 BUT they screwed me on the rebate and payed more like $60

 
"You obviously know absolutly nothing about PC hardware."
actually lite-on was troublesome in the beginning (from what i remember, admittedly very little 🙂)
hp used them for their 12x and 16c cdrw also
i never saw a sealed box at office depot, just returns
but search for the $99 12x iomega plextor from compusa thread...

by the way, anybody planning to get froggy and post the maddog combo drive for $29 also, it's an artec bkm-52x16

"I don't use cd anymore ever since the invention of dvd"
most computers only come standard with cdroms or cdrws, not dvd
ditto for cars also
next question
 
I tried the Staples $10 off $20 coupon at two OfficeMaxs and was shot down both times. They would accept a Staples coupon except for the part about it's having to apply to Staples items only--they said it would only apply to OfficeMax brand stuff. (Got some Staples CD-RW's, tape, and letter trays with one that I downloaded via a FatWallet link a couple days back.)

I did decide to get the HP (allegedly Lite-On) drive. If I can get the rebate, it will be a steal. Otherwise it's a rip-off. Can't ever have enough decent CD-RW drives for $12 round trip ($9 after rebate plus sales tax plus $0.50 for stamps and an envelop). It would be nice to have an extra for when my current CD-RW dies or for when I build another computer. (It's a "Micro Advantage" 52x-32x-52x drive that I got from OfficeMax last year, also for $40 - $30 rebate. I did get the rebate. Turned out to be a BTC Technologies drive, which is allegedly junky, but it's performed well so far.)
