🔥 Sony DRU-720A Internal DVD+R Double Layer/DVD+RW (4X+R, 16X+RW, 8X-R): High Performance DVD Burning and Rewriting Capabilities Review

I had a dru-720a for about 4 months and it worked quite well until about 2 weeks ago - now with film recordings, single or DL, it either hits immediately fails or starts creeping up at 1% every hour or so sometime (newer firmware didn't help). No, I didn't call Sony support - after Google researched Sony products in general and other user experiences with the 710 and 720 in particular, I saved my time and frustration and bought the Iomega. I'm not happy with the number of (expensive) DL media…

After installing this drive in my case, the hard drive light was always on when the drive was in use. The drive itself seemed to work fine, but the light that was always on annoyed me, so I took it and bought a Pioneer DVR-A09XL, which works great.

I stumbled upon the Sony DRU720A at my local store, got a good price (not as good as the current offering here at Revain!) and took it home with me with no great expectations. Home video DVDs transferred from VHS using a DVD burner. So

I bought a Sony DRU720A last month. The first thing I did was change the bezel to black (included) to match the color of my PC. All necessary cables/screws/manuals are included. It installs fine on Win 2000 - make sure the transfer mode for the IDE connection connected to the drive is "DMA mode" as it makes a HUGE difference in CPU usage on older computers.
