What is "D.N. website"?


Thanks!

I didn't know either, but since we are here for news about deals I kinda put two and two together.

BTW, shipping is around $6.50 and there's tax to CA at least, so the price ends up being ~$35. Still good, but I didn't go for it since new dual format 4X seem to be only $20 more which is worth it for me. For a mega budget system, this looks good though.

says $38 now
I maybe would have gotten one for $26, I dont have a dvd burner yet
How long does 2.4x take to burn?

Cheap cheap!

 

[cyberia]

Can anyone please give us a quick rundown on DVD+/-R/RW differences? Which one is preferrable?

 

[Nick5324]

good deal IMHO

 

[shyboi]

cool thanx for the linky! 32.94 after s&h for me, and this is not a bad starter dvd burner for me, kinda a spring board to see if this is what i want to do b/4 i invest some "real" money into this.
thank you!
and you may need to read b/2 the lines to get the real deal so-2-speak.

 

[mrrman]

personally I wouldnt waste my $ on a single format drive...to limited

 

[Chebago]

but, if you already have a dual format 4x drive and want one that you can rip and burn cdr plus a little dvd action to save the wear and tear on your 4x, this is a great deal.

 

[imported_loay]

I spent $250 on my 2.4X Ricoh Drive... I feel like and idiot now..

 

[elkinm]

How expensive are disks for this drive. I don't want to be stuck paying to much for media for an already limited burner?

 

[foolish501]

well bestbuy normally do brand dvd+r disks for 25 for $25.

you can check places like meritline, allmediaoutlet or shop4tech for the cheapest disks. cheapest i've seen is $0.54 per disk, which is about 20c more expensive than the cheapest dvd-r disks i've seen.

I just ordered one, $9.53 shipping for me.
Thanks for the post.
And thanks for the coupon tip.

I just ordered one, $35.14 with Ground Shipping to Texas.

 

[AnyMal]

Look at it this way: combo CDRW/DVD-ROM drives still sell for $40-50. Evene if you won't burn DVD's with this thing, it's still a good deal.

 

[elkinm]

Good idea AnyMal, I actually need a DVD drive and the DVD burning could get me through until faster dual layer burners are out.

$33.78 shipped to Illinois. Great deal.

 

[psycaz]

Thanks, OP
I was looking for a cheap 2nd drive for my other pc.
Once the dual layers come out and drop a bit in price, I can give this one to my dad.

"personally I wouldnt waste my $ on a single format drive...to limited"
big woo
+r are the ones that can do bitsetting? that encourages greater set-top compatibility?

Maybe there is a firmaware that would make it a dual format as well.....?
