5.0 out of 5 stars Fast and Easy!, September 17, 2002
By Matthew T. Wykstra (Galesburg, MI USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was my first experience installing a drive of any kind. The manual gives complete instructions how to replace an existing CD ROM or install this into an empty bay. It took me about 15 minutes to figure it out and do it. The drive burns fast (I've only done writing so far, no re-writing) - I made an audio CD last night and it burned a full 80 min in 5:41 which includes about 3 minutes that my computer spent calculating track volume for each track and only burning at 32x since that's all the discs will handle that I bought. It also comes with an IDE cable and an audio cable if you need them. I didn't since I was replacing an existing drive. Also, the included Nero burning software helps make it easy to burn any format you need. I'm real happy with it so far.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cendyne CDRW are like a box of chocolate, December 26, 2002
By A Customer
Cendyne CDRW are like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're going to get. These are repackaged drives from various manufacturers from Liteon to Panasonic to MSI. If you're lucky you're get a liteon drive which are pretty decent. If you're not lucky you'll end up with a MSI drive that will be really noisy beyond belief (feel like your pc tower is about to blast off into outerspace). That will explain why some people might absolutely love their cendyne and some will absolutely hate theirs. Good luck!

1.0 out of 5 stars worked for 20 days and quit, February 25, 2003
Purchased drive 12/02 for transferring data files only. Quit working approx 20 days later. Loud vibration and would no longer recognize any blank media. Will still read a CD, on occasion--you guess when. No company support via email after three emails. No 1-800 number and must DIG to find toll number for tech support which so far has not produced a result. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS DRIVE unless you enjoy pain.
