DVDR

There are a couple Plextor drives with rebates over at Newegg. There is the Plextor 16X PX-740A [RTPE: PX-740A/SW] is on sale for $67 shipped after a $20 MIR and the slot loading Plextor 16X PX-716AL [RTPE: PX-716AL] which is at $96 shipped after a $50 MIR.

Narrowing it down to only a couple drive recommendations is somewhat difficult since there are many exceptional drives. But the Pioneer 16X DVR-110D [RTPE: DVR-110] is one of our favorites, which is on sale for $45. The NEC 16X ND-3540A [RTPE: ND-3540A] is also a great choice, going for $48 shipped.



This concludes this week's storage price guide. Stick around next week when we take a look at the latest trend in CPU pricing. Thanks for reading!

    Why is there a distinction between 1.5 and 3 gbit/s drives?
    I haven´t seen any benchmark yet where this difference in interface speed results in a performance difference.

    Why aren't laptop drives listed? Some of us need to upgrade our laptops!
