Review on ASUS DRW-24B3ST/BLK/G: High-Speed SATA Optical Drive in Classic Black by Vinay Rao ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I bought the second one 2 months after the first one. It turned out that the tray at the first one does not go to the end by 8-10 mm. Didn't hurt to use. With the tray open, I lubricated the thick gear on the left with silicone grease. It didn't help right away. Then he recorded a batch of 100 discs. contract. Everything became OK. Perhaps due to the heat, the lubricant has dispersed where it should be. It reacts badly to closing the tray with your hand - I use the button.

Pros
  • Quiet. Without marriage writes cheap 8.5 GB. disks. Of 20 pcs. marriage 0%. But the more expensive ASUS 24F 1ST spoiled 4 pcs. out of 4. I use 2 pcs. such. TDK wheels on 16x write perfectly. From 200 pcs. marriage 0%.
Cons
  • For 16x discs, select only 8x or 16x speed.
