Lite-on 24x10x40x and an Iomega 8x4x32x. Like ktkendall, I bought the Iomega when burners were new...think i spent about $200 on it!

I thought I may take the prize for the slowest still working CDRW with my Iomega 4/4/24

homer15 · 04-07-2003, 02:44 PM

my other drive was an 8x12x i dunno know what... it stopped working out of nowhere.

More than fast enough for my needs but it's noisy.
At the moment I run it with XP's software and it's doing a decent job.

***glc*** · 04-07-2003, 08:14 PM

Those are probably the only 2x burners around that still work - they both were working when I pulled them and tossed them in the spare parts locker. 37 minutes to burn a CD - I'm glad those days are over.

Tiretool · 04-07-2003, 11:03 PM

Excellent burners. Never make a coaster!

Maybe I can claim the prize for the slowest still in my PC and working CDRW....

Cricket · 04-08-2003, 11:58 AM

Forgot one...

Some old Sony SCSI 2x CD-RW that someone gave me...it's not installed. Takes about 40 minutes to burn a full CD-R.
