Reviewed By: o74kev on 9/14/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

Pros: Quiet operation.
Fast write.
Accurate reads, especially when writing .iso's

Cons: Haven't found any except maybe that it doesn't come in purple. (just kidding).

Other Thoughts: Have used LG, NEC, Sony. and Liteon drives over the past 10 years. None of these others measures up to this Samsung drive. LG comes close. I am currently running Samsung optical DVD writers in four of my eight computers.

Introduction

The Samsung WriteMaster SH-S182D/BEBE is a triple-format EIDE/ATAPI drive which reads and burns DVD, dual-layer DVD, and CD format media. Dual-layer DVD’s hold up to 8.5 GB of data, and are ideal for users who need to backup or share large amounts of data. The WriteMaster's 18X DVD writer takes less than 6 minutes to write 4.7GB of data to a DVD R/RW disc, and its advanced technology gives you coaster-free performance!

The unit is engineered with a Weight Balancing System that reduces drive noise; Speed Adjustment technology which matches the speed rating of the media; buffer under-run protection; Tilt Actuator Compensation to adjust for deformed writing surfaces on media; and Double Optimum Power Control, which balances the laser power on the sides of the disc for enhanced writing performance. WriteMaster makes backup and duplication of your vital data quick and economical.

Highlights

	Ultra Fast 18X DVD Writing Speed With Samsung's cutting-edge WriteMaster technology, the SAMSUNG SH-S182D DVD Burner supports an ultra-fast 18X DVD+R/-R media writing speed to burn a 4.7GB DVD in fewer than 6 minutes.
	DVD-RAM Support In addition to DVD+R and DVD-R, the SAMSUNG SH-S182D DVD Burner also supports the DVD-RAM format for rewritable, random access recording, fast access to and re-use of the disc, as is the case in a hard drive.
	Dual-layer Support The SAMSUNG SH-S182D DVD Burner supports both DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL dual-layer formats with 8.5 GB storage capacity on a single-sided disc – almost double the capacity of a single layer disc. This allows you to record extended high-quality videos or store massive amounts of data on a single dual-layer disc.
