Kenwood 72x TrueX ***PLEASE READ***

[50]

Does anyone else make a reliable cd rom above 56x?

For $50(assuming US) you should be able to get a DVD/CDR combo drive. My brother had a 52x a few years back and as someone else pointed out, it got damn hot.

Are they still making these?

I've had a 72X since the week they came out. Same drive, used constantly since then. Must be 4 or 5 years old, never a problem. I don't use CDR or CDRW on it though. Maybe I am the one lucky user out of all those people who bought it that is happy with my purchase?

Oh yeah, works in XP, ME, 2000, 2003 just fine.

I have a 52X true X SCSI drive. It was awesome, read most cdrs, and pressed cds, RWs had the most problems. It was very quiet yet fast.
Bought it for 49.99 at a compusa when they were closing them out, then ended up selling it for close to 100 on the forums when I got rid of all my scsi gear.

Kinda wish I kept it , but oh well.
