HP CD-Writer Plus 9110i 8x4x32,any good?

[Toro 45]

I've been planning on buying a cd burner for a while, just noticed a pretty good price on this model. Anyone using it? Can you reccomend it?
I'll be using it in Win 98 but I'll be upgrading to ME very soon.
Thanks Toro

Toro 45,
I have a Plextor but a buddy of mine has that model and he's happy with his. Another plus, like the Plextor it's compatible with CloneCD.

get a plextor 12x10x32
much better dood
the 9110i is out dated

Ya, I know the 9110i is a bit dated, I'm just concerned about the quality of the drive? I can get the HP 10x4x32 for $189.00 which is 40 more than the 8x4x32.

I know the Plextor drives are highly regarded for there quality but
the Plextor has got to be at least $230.00 or higher which is not in my price range.
I'm always behind the curve on cutting edge & speed & ,which puts me back to the 9110i for $149.00 if the quality of the drive is there?

Thanks Wally & Bonkers,
Toro

my friend has it and i burn stuff at his place when they dont work with nero or ezcd (ie when clonecd is needed) since my smart&friendly does not support clonecd

i and he are very happy with it, given its price...

Thanks for the help. I bought the HP 9110i today & so far so good.

I have the 9100 and I love it. HP makes great CD writers.

I have the 9110i. I plan to return it and get a different one. Probally a 10x or something. Other than that the burner has done me well.

I have a 9110i and it has been very reliable. Compatability with CloneCD is a must now, too. Only a couple of coasters and they were due to my stupidity.

Does this burner burn on the 700 meg cd's? I'm not sure if it's the burner that dictates it or the software but there is a good price on this and I just want to make sure it works on the larger discs.

The 700 mb disk are what I'm using on it & no problem them.
