Hey All,

I am considering buying a Benq Dual Layer DVD burner. They are on sale but I don't know a thing about them. What (if any) are the compatibility issues. How hard is it to find the dual layer medi?

Thanks All,
Fp

As for Double layer disc, it's very diffiuclt to find in the market (I lived in EU). Current only 2 manufacturer make that.

buy the burner for the future so you will have it. but dual layer media is very exspensive now. about $10.00 per disks from what i have found.

my 2 cents

what they don't tell you in the review is the BenQ customer service is worse than a joke. I bought the BenQ and after trying 15 DVD R in + and - and reinstalling half my PC i took it back with reciept, original packing and cable, software and the sample DVD+r. after a month I got back a replacement drive as the original was indeed DOA. The replacement was in a plastic bag! not even a warrently card, nothing. I can't even be bothered to put the thing in my PC I'm so pi**ed off about it.

hello susie2

most all salesman i have ever talked to don't know
their ass from a hole in the wall. they just want to sell something. there all like car salesman.

i don't know all about your problems but don't buy off the wall items for your computer.

i have found that WAL-Mart sells a lot of computer items usally cheaper than any one else. i buy from them cause of there great 90 day return policy, on most anything.

i bought a HP 620 IDE dvd burner for 99.00 worked well


my 2 cents
