Asus DRW-0402P/D

Zitat

The ASUS DRW-0402P/D is certainly an impressive drive. Even though we had compatibility issues with CDRW and DVD+R media, the drive performed reasonably well on DVD+RW and DVD-R/W media. CDR writes were somewhat slow at 16X. However, to be honest, the drive must be aggressively priced with the Pioneer A06 in order to warrant a purchase. The drive is just starting to hit US soil, with online merchants carrying the drive around $250. Obviously, if the identical Pioneer A06 is priced around $230, ASUS will have a difficult time convincing consumers to buy it (even more so, if ASUS cannot keep BIOS updates current with the Pioneer releases).
