Ricoh 9060A: A good cross purpose drive (894 words)

A CD Writer with DVD capability. Thats right. Capability. What that does NOT mean is that it doesn't burn DVDs. It is a DVD reader and CD writer. Got that? Good. Had to clear it up . Ok, well lets have a look at this drive then eh? Overall specification. For starters, this is an internal drive that fits inside an existing 5.25 inch drive bay on your computer. You know the one I mean? You probably have a spare one on the front of your computer or you have an existing CD Rom drive in there already. This drive has the option of running alongside an existing CD Rom drive or completely replacing it. That is because it also reads CD's. My ... Read the complete review

Ricoh 9060A Great writer..but where's the DVD software? (173 words)

I have been very impressed with the Ricoh 9060A - especially since it also has DVD thrown in. The downside was that there was no DVD software - and I had to pay extra to download Power DVD from the internet! The strange thing is that a friend in the USA got exactly the same kit - the same week - but she DID have the DVD software on her disk !! She also had Easy CD Creator and not Nero as I did. Easy CD is better in my opinion. I mailed Ricoh about the missing software and all they did was suggest DVD software to BUY! Rather cheeky I thought ! Had the system not performed so well I might have been tempted to return the 9060A to Insight (the ... Read the complete review

This writer is very, very good. When I first got it, I was well chuffed in buying the writer. For starters it wrote at a reasonable six speed and it could also rewrite, and plus it can read DVDs. Now that was an added bonus. The writer can copy virtually anything. It is also supported by a very large range of softwares. It also came with Nero Burning ROM which is a very good CD copying and writing program. Mp3 CDs work very well with it also. I would recommend this to a first time buyer of a cd writer and rewriter. ... Read the complete review

I bought this Cd writer / rewriter a few months ago, and i am glad to say that it has really served me well. Not only does it burn CD's relatively quickly (taking a maximum of about a quarter of an hour on anything) but also its a DVD player. Before buying this, I had a simple floppy drive and CD-Rom drive. With this upgrade to my computer, I have opened up many new possiblities for myself. The Nero software accompanying the machine was perfect for everything I needed and as a musician who records into mp3s for use on the internet, I was happy by the easy drag and drop interface by which I could convert these mp3 files into an audio CD. ...
