Conclusion
Plextor's
Plextwriter 12/10/32A is one sweet IDE CD-ReWriter. Incorporating
the awesome BURN-Proof technology, extremely fast write and
re-write times this CD-RW Plextor again takes home the CD-RW
crown. Not to mention the great software bundle, which includes
Adaptec's powerful Easy CD Creator. With a MSRP of $250, and
a current
street price of $230 the price is just right. If you're
in the market for a fast and reliable CD-RW drive look no further
than the Plextor Plexwriter 12/10/32A as it's currently one
of the best out there.
