CD-RW ASAP

The new CD burners deliver speed to spare. Our tests of 30 drives reveal the best deals in a crowded field.

The Best USB Drives

In some situations, an external drive that users can share between computers may be just what the spin-doctor ordered. The main difference between external drives involves their interface.

We tested eight external drives, in each case using the drive's USB 1.1 interface--the most common interface on today's PCs. USB drives are easy to install but don't run fast, due to USB 1.1's limited bandwidth. All eight external drives were significantly slower and many are more expensive than the internal drives in this roundup. Our top pick in this category--Micro Solutions' Backpack Triple Play CD-Rewriter--isn't the cheapest, but it is the most versatile.
