Samsung SM-308
This DVD/CD-RW combo drive offers surprisingly fast CD-ROM and DVD-ROM read speeds.
WHAT'S HOT: Samsung's SM-308 not only offers excellent DVD movie playback, it's an above-average reader in all respects. The drive installed Microsoft Office 2000 in 4 minutes flat, the third-fastest performance we've seen. And it ripped our 250MB audio file in only 1 minute, 51 seconds--the fifth-fastest time ever.
WHAT'S NOT: The SM-308's 4X CD-RW write speed is slow compared with the 10X-rated screamers flooding the market these days. Samsung's multilingual documentation lacks hand-holding for beginners.
WHAT ELSE: The SM-308 carries the industry-standard one-year warranty. Adaptec's Easy CD Creator 4.02 and DirectCD 3.01 handle the CD-mastering and packet-writing tasks.
BEST USE: This Samsung drive is a capable DVD-ROM player and CD-ROM reader, and offers adequate CD-R and CD-RW performance for those seeking a combination drive.
