My nec 3500 is a real gem. $66 with free shipping. It's burned everything that I've thrown at it flawlessly, at 12 and 16x no less. PC games, PS2 games, DVDs, DVD MP3s, Picture DVDs, etc etc etc. Great media compatability. And all that without even bothering to update the firmware from the 2.16 it came with.
No problems yet. but still burn at 4x (habit). Haven't done any dual layer yet, been thinking about getting some discs (but then I think which movie is worthy?)
burns movies just fine at 4x with ritek ridata +'s
However....backing up Xboxes games it does not burn so well, I'm using ritek ridata -'s burning at 4x then 2 x they play like crap. burned them at max speed they come out good, does this make and sence? shouldn't it come out better the slower I burn?
How long did it take you to get your rebate from Plextor, I send mine for $30.00 Nov. 2 '04, up to now Jan. 24 '05, I have not receive my rebate, it still on process it is more than 11 weeks now. Thanks.
Mailed my rebate on 9/01/04 still have not received the check!!!Have called and E-mailed several times,was told check was mailed 12/23/04 still not here.Going to call one final time as it looks like I will never see this rebate.
Try not to give up. Just keep on e-mailing them. I will do the same, maybe the others can do the same. Then maybe we can get our rebates. What a Company this is? Thanks.
well ive delt with plextor before, and i can assure you that their warranty is very good. i had a plextor 708A as my first drive, it worked good for 6 months only, than it started to give me blinking yellow lights, called plextor customer service because my warranty was for 1 year, they gave me an rma application, 2 days later i had a rma number to send the malfunctioning drive back to them, they replaced it with a plextor 712A. so far i have no problems with it, but than again ive only had it for 2 months. i only burn on fujifilm media. but plextor is pretty good in customer support.
