Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Que! Fire 24x10x40x maintains high quality and stability while creating a 650 MB disc in about three minutes. CD-ReWriting is faster than ever at 10x speeds. With 40x max read, the Que! Fire 24x10x40x qualifies as a full-time replacement for an existing CD-ROM or CD-R drive.

With the new technology BURNProof II, the Que! Fire eliminates buffer underrun errors in fast write modes, and allows for multitasking. These are errors that result in wasted "coasters"--CDs rendered unusable by a failure during recording.

With Firewire 1394 interface and plug-and-play compatibility, installing a CD-RW drive has never been easier. You can reclaim valuable hard disk space, copy or share files with drag-and-drop simplicity within minutes of opening the box.

Complete and ready to install, the QPS Que! Fire Drive includes CD mastering software, CD-Recordable/ReWritable media, a protective carrying bag, and all the accessories you need to get started immediately.

5.0 out of 5 stars Its Fast and Highly Recommended, January 4, 2002
A Kid's Review
This review is from: QPS External 24x10x40 Firewire CD-RW Drive (Personal Computers)
I am someone who likes music-mixing and CD-burning. The QPS Que! 24x10x40 is the best CDRW drive yet. I have a 366 MHz iBook with OS 9.2 and 128 MB RAM, and it works great. Although it isn't compatible with Apples iTunes, MP3 files can be taken from iTunes playlists and burned through Toast (I have Roxio Toast 5 Lite). Data CDs burn very fast, and it's backround burning, so I can check email or surf the web with burning. Audio takes longer to burn than data, but it's really fast. With Toast Audio Extractor and iTunes, along with Toast 5 Lite and my QPS CD burner, I can mix and match, copy, and even (if I upgrade) make my own Video CDs. It's the best of the best.

1.0 out of 5 stars No technical Support, December 31, 2001

This review is from: QPS External 24x10x40 Firewire CD-RW Drive (Personal Computers)
This may be a good drive, but I'll never find out. I purchased it as a Christmas gift for my daughter to use on her Mac G4 laptop. The drive was not recognized by the Apple (i tunes) software and the "toast" software that came with the drive scrambled many of her mp3 files. There may be a simple driver or configuration solution, but there was no useful information on this drive on their website (only sales pages and support information for their 16X drives which did not work for the new unit). QPS technical support did not respond to repeated phone messages (coast-to-coast long distance calls -- they do not have an 800 number for support) and the e-mail to their tech and customer support addresses given on the web site bounced. Out of time and patience, I am returning the drive.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great quiet machine, December 31, 2001

"courierbane" (Toronto, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: QPS External 24x10x40 Firewire CD-RW Drive (Personal Computers)
This little burner was easy to set up. Plug into computer, plug into power convertor plug into a socket. Done. The drive itself is quiet until burning and then isn't too loud.

It's complements the PowerMac G4 tower esthetically and if you sit it on top, the tray just clears the handle. It comes with a snazzy case if you want to carry it around with you too.

It runs extremely smoothly in OS9 but it lost a star because there is no driver out there right now that supports this model for burning in OS X.
