Great until it stopped workingby dkovalak - February 5, 2007
Pros: Great quality CD and DVD reading and burning, quick to read CDs
Cons: Was randomly unresponsive; DVD drive stopped working completely after 15 months.
Review:
I held this product to high standards from the moment I purchased it all the way up until it randomly failed to read disks. After about 15 months, the DVD drive stopped working completely and refused to burn or read any home-made, blank, or commercial DVDs. My high hopes and empty wallet are regrettable.
