Pros: Had the features I wanted to fix my dads old computer using many existing components.

Overall Review: I should have looked more closely at these reviews. It's a gamble to see if yours will work or not. I'm not taking another chance. Instead I will try another product.

Pros: It's fast when it works.

Cons: Will not read CDs on a consistent basis. While ripping brand new CDs it has difficulty reading them. Sometimes it will lockup the machine. Same CD & software on my old machine has no trouble.

Overall Review: Looking for a new drive. Anybody try the new PLEXTOR PX-810SA?
