AOpen CRW5232

· by John Chen

People still make these things? I think burning at 32x is already fast enough, but engineers continue to push things to the limit. Viperlair has AOpen 52x CDRW that still provides good use.

“Whether or not you still need a CDRW drive these days will depend a bit on how you use your computer. Personally, I don’t find the current CD burning speeds of DVD writers to be fast enough, and considering how much those drives cost in comparison to a standalone CDRW drive, I would prefer to put them through less abuse and not rely on them for CD burning duties.”
