Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 15:40:01 +0930 From: "Daniel O'Connor" Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I am planning to purchase a CD-R and I wondered if anyone had any information on the TraxData CDR 4120ELPro (the cdrecord home page says it's supported..) I'm basically looking for reliability reports etc. I have tried a Ricoh MP-6200 and it worked fine, but was only 2x. I also tried a Sony CDU948S-B and it I managed to kill 3 of them (ie drives, not disks!!) by reading CDDA with it for 2 days, so I wouldn't recommend them. (I don't know if that was a problem with the driver, and I don't think its hardware since the Ricoh worked OK, and it was mounted in a good solid case) Please cc: a copy to me if you reply, thanks :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- |Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software | |http://www.gsoft.com.au | |The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to| |choose from. -- Andrew Tanenbaum | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
