Rob,
I have a Yamaha 16x10x40 in my PC, and have been hating it. The tray
comes out about 2/3rds of the way out an slows down slightly. My TEAC
cd-rom, just slides out full speed, as does every other cd-rom I have
seen. I also have problems with the cdr's. This piece of junk will
choke on anything but Imation CDR's. Plus, If I write to a CDR, make it
readable in a plain cd-rom, and then try to write more to it later on,
the newer files aren't shown in another drive and computer.
Furthermore, the CDs aren't readable in DOS. I can see the files, but
can't access them. Yet, the same cd-rom will access the burned cd under
WIN98.
Am I doing something wrong? I spent $300 for this thing, thinking I was
buying the best!
