| 1: It's NOISY 2: It's locked to 17X DAE reading 3: It doesn't support reading 96 byte subchannel data. 4: It skips errors very slow.(bad CloneCD performance) 5: It's no good at reading bad CD-R Media or scratched discs. Byside this, there is nothing wrong with it. But I prefer a lite-on LTD-163 over this one.......even a toshiba SD-M1502 or SD-M1612 is better.

| Well ... I have tried the 106s and I'm currently using a Toshiba 1612M and I can say it's waaaaaaaay better at reading all kinds of burnt CD's than the 106. I don't know any of the drives you list except the Toshiba. I had an AOPEN once ... worked very well. I don't know if the AOPEN 16X handles Protected Audio Discs as well as their burner does, but if it do it would be a good choice! Just make sure it is region free or that it can be made region free. |
