70 bucks at best buy.
More importantly, does anyone know what unit ships in this box?
Thanks.

its a digital research, not a pacific digital, please change title.
89.99 - 10MIR - 10BB MIR= 69.99

Anyone knows if this drive has burn proof or waste proof?
Thanks.

Bought one a month ago and it was the Lite-On

Posted the question in peripherals, but anyone else know if it's a Lite-on. Got a PS game to return and this would be a sweet pickup for that price plus the return.

The Pacific Digital 24x10x40 (a Lite-on or Mitsumi mfg) at office Depot for $49.99 is still available, if you can find it in stock.

I was OD today, they jacked up the price for Pacific Digital 24x10x40 to $129 with $20 rebate.

The Pacific Digital 24x10x40 shows up at OD's web site as $99.99.

So this one is actually the Liteon?

The last Digital Research I bought at CC was an Acer.

I got an open box one yesterday for $79.60-$20 rebate and it's a Lite-ON (In the bios, but the sticker on the unit says it's a I/O Magic).

ok.. I just got the drive yesterday.

there is no sticker or what-so-ever on the drive which indicate it is a Lite-on drive.
its model # is 24x10x40, which is not lite-on's model.


I also checked the firmware, in the device manager in Win2k.
It show firmware version 2, and model 24x10x40.

I had a rebadge drive before, even though the front is different.
the firmware and model # is the same, sometimes you can even find the original manufacturer's name on the drive.
(with a small logo).

I wen to Costco Clue to check out CenDyne's 16x drive. On its back, it clearly marked as a Lite-on drive. So, I am not sure it is a lite-on.

I never trust digital-research's rebate. AM I alone?

 

[Allen7]

I received one of the $10 rebate last week from BestBuy, hope the other will come soon.
