sanyo leases the burn proof tech... know anything about sanyo scsi 16x10x40 CDRW?

[TungFree]

I just discovered that if u want a SCSI CDRW with the latest burn proof tech I have a choice:
Plextor SCSI 12x10x32 with sanyo leased burn proof tech
Sanyo SCSI 16x10X40 its own original Burn proof tech

The 2 drives sell for nearly the same amount
has sanyo one for $256 and Plextor for $255 both in same store $6 ground shipping from california


The sanyo is tempting but I never knew sanyo to make fine products (hardware) in the mid 70ies they began cheep tv and tried to invoke memories of sony sonyo is simmilar sounding and since then I never have seen a fine quality product from them.
Please do make me wrong if u know otherwise I am so tempted that a CDRW may be a good buy and BTW it seems to be a holyday special for the weekend.
I live in hawaii and the shipping to hawaii kills me some want 50$ just to ship the CDRW!!! what a scam!!!!

so I want to find a free shipper but the cheepest free shipper for plextor wants $290 for the plextor and only 2 ppl cary the sanyo.

I have no idea where you obtained that information, but rest assured that after talking with the head engineer of Plextor, they do not under any circustances, lease Burn Proof from Sanyo. In fact, the burn proof algorithm is totally different than Sanyo's.

Bill,
I am in a curve of tremendeous overwhelm of learning how to network to burn to buye Item by Item a mother board case burner memory Athlon 133mhz capable and because of the intense assimulation of data I may have read that another manufacturer of burners was leasing the technology from sanyo and assumed that the burn proof was a single invention invented by sanyo.

I was stating simmilarly to how a student in college may state on an exam in class as he remembers it after digesting and cramming )) hahahhahahahah
So I stand corrected, thank u as u have a jenuine source of reference please do comment then to resolve my indecision I am tempted as the deal sonyo has is till possibly Monday.

Did he have any input reguarding quality? Frankly I never bought from sonyo, and only because somone traded me a SCSI controller and I have 2 SCSI hard drives is why I am so set on scsi.

I did read that on a test the IDE Plextror outperformed the SCSI and shoked everyone who paarticipated including me... but I am still unconvinced SCSI has been a reliable performing platform and always has been faster...

Whoever you talked to wasn't a Plextor head engineer Bill. Take a look here:

Plextor

Look at the bottom of the page for this line:

"*BURN-Proof is a licensed technology of Sanyo Electric Ltd."

Still think Plextor developed it?

 

[TungFree]

Pariah Thanks hehe
now I do not feel so bad that Bill Flunked me on my exam hahahaaha

Bill go back to school hahahahahahahahah

just kidding am in a glee of releif I thought I had read that.

OK OK now that we are back to that what comments can be made about the sanyo SCSI drives for burning -- if they invented the burn proof then they must have some skills in burning machines but... (( I do not know that anyone anyone HELP FAST!!

Bill It may be that that paricular engeneer either is a social zerro and knows little of the company biz or he just was told to say he was an engeneer to make pple feel they spoke to somone important

hehe Pariah

on closer inspection I see that yamaha scsi 16x10x40 has no burn proof tech but has 8 meg buffer
while sanyo SCSI 16x10x40 has burnproof and 2 meg buffer
and Plextor SCSI 12x10x32 has burnproof and 4 meg buffer

It would seem that since burnproof fixes at most 4 or 5 times per cd burn errors that when it stops burning momentarily to let the flow of data catch up that no marked vissible changes will be noticed between burners if they had both been 12x and one had 4 meg the other 2 meg buffers with burn proof and since the 16 times sonyo will give atleast a minute or so more speed per burn being 16X and since it will rip waves at 32x and the Pleaxtor at 24x (ripping is slower than reading )seems like the sanyo is a better deal at the same price...

come give your ideas experience and wisdom

$1 more for the Sanyo? If it's true 16x, rather than the 12x-16x as when approaching outer tracks(like the Yamaha 16x) then maybe that $1 is worth it if it saves you a minute every time. It's so "if"fy to wonder about the merits of one brand over another. You can always get a bad sample of any brand. It tends to be bad out of the box, or good out of the box, rather than bad out of the box then starts working or good out of the box then stops working. I'd be more skeptical of a smaller brand name, but Sanyo's been out there for a while. I still have a 4x SCSI CD-ROM drive by Sanyo that works and reads CD-RWs

 

[Bill]

Well guess what guys, I've been duped by the head Russian engineer himself. Sorry to spread mis-information, but it appears that he directly lied to me in a two hour long-distance call he made to me personally. In fact, he ranted and raved how Sanyo's technology was completely beneath Plextor's algorithyms.

I hate liars...

Bill

 

[Gunbuster]

I thought sanyo had burnproof 2 that uses a smaller reconnect/sync gap, maybe he was talking about that (or just likes to lie)

 

[Pariah]

According to Plextor's site, they don't even have a Russian division. Looks like the guy lied to you about being a engineer altogether.

 

[Bill]

Russian division? No, no, I meant that the head engineer's ethnic background was Russian (ie. he was from Russia).
