Anybody know if that rebate that Best buy has will work on this cdrom. If it does then the price drops to $45.67.

Best cdrom on the market. well better than twice the speed than anything else out there.

zoiks, how did you use the 25 dollar off offer at Onvia? i know the code and got the 100 dollar minimum, but was prompted to enter credit card and shipping info. before continuing. there wasn't a code-entering form and i don't want to be charged w/o the offer.

thanks. -yata

FuzzyBryan, how are audio rips on that drive? I've heard that previous generations had problems with ripping audio.

$100 for a CD-ROM is too rich for my blood regardless of how "super fast" it is. I am STILL kicking myself for not getting one of those clearance Smart & Friendly 4x/4x/24x CD-R/W drives from b&m OD's while they had them a month ago! Regret sucks.

I got my 42x kenwood (i think its 42x ) a while back @ CompUSA. It doesn't read cdrs very well, and gets pretty hot. Dunno why... Just wanted to let y'all know.

Seven lasers makes a lot of heat


My52x rips at approximaterly 12x I am RMAing it for a 72x since they don't have as many bugs and you can play Diablo II with them...

They say the 72x can rip audio 20x we'll see.

Not worth.. $100 plus dollars get a DVD.. IMHO

I got mine as an exchange to start

I got mine back when we had that deal from... well cant remember where, but it was like $175 off a $200 purchase and the site really really sucked, so I bought the first thing I could find? a Kenwood 72x? I love it? It performs best on installs.. that is where you really notice the 72x but when ripping audio for burning it seems to take a while longer, but it is still fast as $@#* I would recommend this drive to anyone... the only problem it has is it can be temperamental at times... don?t try to confuse it.. ie. open one thing and then start clicking on something else before opens.. I had to send mine back once and I am sure that?s what caused the problems.. I think..("I think&quot it caused the heads to jump out of alignment or something... but they were very nice, they sent me a new one in like two days. And then I sent my back after I received the new one....
