Good Points

If this drive can read it, then you know anything can.


Bad Points

Very slow at reading DVDs if there's the slightest mark or fingerprint [0.1x] - Thats what gives it the low score. A Pioneer walks all over it.
Reading boards - this is a common problem with all NEC ND-2500A's


General Comments

I wouldn't get another NEC ND-2500A - mine died at 7 months old.

Reads reliably at about 2.4x if there's no dirt. Writes reliably on 25pence 4x DVDs. 50% of DVD writes at 8x are duff [well they work but they don't verify].

Writes CDs brilliantly, haven't had any problems [I write a lot of audio CDs].

Drive gets very hot, might be why it died.
