Liteon LTR 24102B

I had been meaning to purchase a CD-RW drive for quite sometime, for both neccesity reasons aswell as luxury, but more on neccessity since my aged computer was on it's last few hundred megabytes of disk space (and I require a fair amount of disk space as I mostly deal with audio files on my computer), and my factory installed Iomega Zip 100 drive had been almost useless since day one, not to mention that its consumables are very expensive and have less storage in comparision with a cheap CD. The only way to secure my contents and cater other needs was to indeed take the plunge and buy this. On shopping around for a suitable drive, I was at first put-off ...  Read the complete review

For anyone with a near encyclopaedic knowledge of late 1980s dance/pop music, the allusion to Black Box (featuring Nicki Harris I believe...) in the title would be child's play. I was sceptical about buying a LiteOn CD Burner, especially one which claims to be 24 speed writing speed, as I have always gone for names I could trust (e.g. Hewlett Packard, Yamaha). However a glance through Geizhals.at showed that this 24 speed burner could be mine for ATS 1688 (that's £76.72) and with my HP Burner having been bought just prior to the era of Burn-proof burners (these eliminate the scourge of many a users' life - Buffer Underrun), and that being the cheapest price ...  Read the complete review

After recently upgrading my PC from a 333 Mhz to a 1.4 Ghz I thought it was also time to upgrade from my 2 speed cd writer. After countless hours of searching over the internet I found this LiteOn 24 speed cd writer. Surprisingly the price was very cheap at £112 from buy.com but then I noticed some £20 off when you spend £40 or over for first time buyers from buy.com. At £112 this cd writer would have been excellent value for money but for just £92 I couldn't complain. The CD writer arrived after around 10 days (out of stock at buy.com so it had to be ordered) and setup was very straightforward. It is also fully complient with Windows 2000. The writer also ...  Read the complete review

Starting out ------------ I have got a LitOn It 24x10x40 CD-RW (CD Re-Writer). It goes like lightning. I have it installed in a PC I built myself, and it is extremely good (I use Nero to burn with). It has a burnproof system (stops buffer under-run errors) and in a recent PC magazine (I forget the name of it) this CD-RW was rated very highly, and so it should be too. Looks ----- This drive is nice looking, but the fascia is that sort of yellow-coloured white. I prefere the sraight white coloured drives myself. The emergency eject hole is conveniently placed. Installation ------------- Easy installation (as with most CD ...  Read the complete review

Liteon have made a decent quality CDRW at a damm good price. I have been very impressed with this drive since I installed it. Having not purchased a CDRW for quite while I needed some advice, the chaps at the place i purchased it from (Gladiatorcomputers.co.uk) seems to give me all the answers I needed, told me about it ability to copy any CD which sounded good. I did my home work and read around, it seems that most CDRW fail on copying complex software do to intentional error put on the dicks by the publishers, the Liteon sense these and dones not naff up your copy, leaving you with a perfect copy and a lot less cd coasters! Make sure you get hold of Clone CD for ...  Read the complete review
