Iomega 12x4x32 CD-RW with burn-proof for $110! No rebates!

[Fooey]

Bestbuy has it for $149.99 and free shipping. Call Staples and pricematch, add some pencils or something, apply the $40 off $150 coupon, $110 shipped! It worked for me, only I had to pay $10 tax...

DOH!!! Repost!

 

[nealh]

I doubt this is a burnproof drive...more likely scsi

 

[UNKNOWNDUDE]

i have this drive its EIDe without burn in proof

 

[Fooey]

It is... closen up on THIS, HERE too...

 

[Fooey]

You dooo!?! BAH! :|

 

[PlatinumGold]

I would just buy the GC from Shoptalk.com, $50 GC for $40, = 120.00 plus S & H. still not a bad deal.

 

[PlatinumGold]

OOPS, was wrong, Best Buy is offering free shipping on the deal.

 

[Dulanic]

Wow it has BURN Proof? Kick ass. Im picking one up at Best Buy tommorow! They have it in their weekly ad for the same price 150.

 

[Dulanic]

Wrong it doesnt have Burn Proof... I just checked the Iomega page.... only the 12x10x32 has BURN proof.

 

[CalebTG]

The 12x4x32 DOES have burn-proof.

Their site for some reason doesn't mention it, I've noticed that.
It says "BURN-Proof" right on the face plate

It is a rebadged Sanyo drive, and sanyo is the main owner of "BURN-Proof" technology.

And I have burned in Nero and CD-R Win and BURN-Proof is activated just fine in both of them

 

[Dulanic]

You sure? If it does Ill pick it up ASAP.

 

[Dulanic]

YOUR RIGHT! I see the Burn proof written on the box in the AD! WOOT! Im buying it!

 

[CalebTG]

HERE is the link to the OEM drive made by Sanyo FYI

also, look at the link provided above by Fooey.

 

[Dulanic]

Can I ask how much you paid for yours? Im going to Best Buy tommorow to pick one up since its in the AD for 150.

 

[CalebTG]

$170 about a month and a half ago from buy.com, never seen it lower than that till now

 

[Fooey]

Dulanic, you know you can have Staples pricematch it, right? $110!

 

[Fooey]

Hmm... so it's this Sanyo drive... Sanyo's Compatability Chart says it works with CloneCD. Anyone try CloneCD? Thanks!

 

[CalebTG]

Here is a live pic and a few stats on the drive, as you can see, it flat out says on the drive it has burn-proof, and its face is identicle to the sanyo drive mentioned above, and Sanyo owns BURN-Proof technology

 

[Fooey]

CloneCD!!! W00t, thanks CalebTG!

 

[CalebTG]

PICTURES updated, added NERO 5 showing support for BURN-Proof

 

[nealh]

Well it appears I am wrong....I would check at clone clinic to see if this drive is fully supported ...I will not comment and make another mistake...I assumed this was a rebadged 12/4/32 plex which is not burnproof

 

[CalebTG]

I'm possitive this a rebadged Sanyo, and not Plextor, well, because I own one
No worries, I was here to clear it up.

It took me forever to figure out who made it myself, till I checked out burn-proof.com

Iomega only sells the IDE version. Sanyo made both a SCSI and IDE version.
Also, Sanyo released a new Firmware yesterday, so I'd imagine Iomega will release their version of it soon

 

[dcdomain]

Arghh... I jumped on the TDK deal last time... damn~! Oh well... whoever picks this up, good deal, hope you guys are happy with it. =)

 

[golem]

nealh,

So what'd you find out about clonecd compatibility?

 

[CalebTG]

CloneCD works for me
