Digital camera reviews of Memorex 20x DVD±RW DL USB 2.0 External Drive
Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
There's a reason this sells for 72% below retail: It's worth about 72% of other burners.
Two burners ago I had a Memorex, and loved it. It eventually gave up the ghost and was replaced by a Sony, which wasn't as nice, but did the job. It died last week and this unit is its replacement.
To be even, the two previous were 18x burners, while this new one is a 20x. The media I am using are quality Sony DVDs, 18x. Somehow, burning with this new Memorex takes almost twice as long. This and my previous two units are all external USB drives, plugged in to the same port directly on the PC itself. There's no reason for the throughput to be as abysmal as it is, yet all factors remaining constant (not changing media, burning software, etc) it burns an 18x disc in almost *twice* the time of the old Sony and the original Memorex. For new technology to behave poor compared to drives from 5+ years ago is just unacceptable.
If you're looking for a cheap replacement or an in-a-pinch stand in, sure. Otherwise, it's not a high quality product. I don't know how they ever charged *more* than $40 for this.
