5.0 out of 5 stars Sony DRX720UL External USB 2.0/i.Link DVD+R Double Layer/DVD+RW, July 11, 2005
Wonderful addition to my computer system. Easy to hook-up. XP recognized it as soon as I connected the USB and applied power. I was using it 5 minutes out of the box. Good looking unit also, lays flat or on it's side, performs superbly either way. No opinion on the provided software, haven't had a need for it yet.

3.0 out of 5 stars 16X Writing Speed, 8X without errors., November 15, 2005
By D. Avila (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I burn a DVD to back up my photos, I definately want to Verify the written data after the burn session. I can't seem to burn an error-free DVD+R with this burner unless I drop the write speed down to 8X. Even 12X causes errors. If I ignore the couple of errors and try to see what photos are on the DVD anyway, the programs stop responding and the DVD drive goes nuts.

Why make a 16X burner if the only way to get an error-free disc is to force the 8X speed?

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than what I needed!, August 14, 2005
Awesome drive, with good i.link connectivity, and can't beat the price for an great Sony product! Having a Sony computer, I wanted another option other than USB, and this was the perfect choice.
I've burned everything I possibly can, and it has worked flawlessly.
