4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Buy, November 6, 2001

By	David H. Fann (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews

I have had the DVD drive for a couple of weeks now, and have had no problems. The installation guide is brief. The drive might be difficult to install if you are a computer novice, so have an IT friend "on call" if you plan to do it yourself (the reason for 4 not 5 stars). I have had no problems reading DVDs or CD-ROMs on the drive. I have an 850 MHz Athlon machine with a good graphics card but with no decoder card and have only experienced minimal delays when viewing DVDs. Overall a very good buy, I'd highly recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars a great DVD rom for the price, April 15, 2002

By	Michael Kramer (Menominee, Mi.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the first cd-rom drive I have ever installed. It went in and was up and running with little or no problems. Just got done watching my first full-length film on it (Training Day) as a tester, and no glitches.
The Picture is clean and the sound is incredible. I plan on making this my dvd player for my home theater once I plug the s-video cable into my 31" tv. I am happily surprised that it works this well for what I paid for it.
The installation instructions can throw you a bit if you're not familiar with installing cd-rom drives (like I was). If this is a secondary drive, make sure you set the jumper on your original drive to "master", and the jumper on this dvd drive to "slave". I did it this way just because my original cd-rw drive came with my computer and just kept it the primary drive.
Other than that, it's a good all around DVD player. For the price..you can't go wrong. It's economical and will serve all your DVD-rom purposes.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent choice ..., September 28, 2002

By	R. Gelert (saint louis) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this dvd drive a couple of months ago ... . It was an advertised special ... . Took drive home and installed with no problems. This is a typical ide drive install with jumper settings and rail/or screw instsallation to hold in place. Software included is powerdvd a wonderful player. The only con to this drive is the spin up noise and the delay in ejecting media. Overall this is an excellent choice ... .
