After following the forum for I while, I went ahead and brought the plextor....everything is fine, but I have some questions for other plextor owners.....
Does the tray always slide out so slowly? It seems really laboured, making quite a loud whirring noise...it doesn't sound broken or anything, just I was expecting the same sort of speed as any other CD drive...
Is spinning up time always so slow...I have to wait about 5 seconds before being able to read information from a CD. Is it possible to speed this up somewhere.
Seek times...the speed checker got a figure of 160....isn't that a little slow?
Bad reads (which can produce clicks on audio grabbing), again the speed util recorded many...on my friends Samsung hardly any were recorded, and its seek time was only 110, and the tray opens quickly, and you can read the CD within about 2 secs...it is only an 8x though.
Otherwise the performance is great, burns quickly, no errors so far...
And what about that DMA33 stuff...should i change it to that mode?
Well, thats all...hope someone can put my mind at rest...
Peace y'all!
