Sony DRU110A/C1 DVD+RW/CD-RW internal EIDE Reviewed on 02/27/2002

The Bottom Line: While it has some flaws, the Sony DRU110A/C1 is a good value given its newer technology, and it's a fine choice for families or budding video-editing enthusiasts. But it has some stiff competition from the HP DVD-Writer DVD100i.

Specs: DVD+RW, 32x (CD) / 8x (DVD), 12x, 10x (CD) / 2.4x (DVD)

The Bottom Line: Although it's fast, this drive's quirky software bundle is a liability. For now, pick the HP DVD200i.

Specs: DVD+RW, 32x (CD) / 8x (DVD), 12x (CD) / 2.4x (DVD), 10x (CD) / 2.4x (DVD)
