Good. Not Great.Strengths: Attractive, fast, good quality, relatively portable. Weakness: Not as reliable as I thought a Plextor drive would be. This is a nice-looking unit with DVD RW and CD RW capabilities. I have gotten faster performance by using the included FireWire cable, which incidentally frees up a USB port. It works lying flat or standing on its side in the included holder. I have been able to install the software on multiple computers, enabling me to use this one drive to back them up and swap data between them. I have only...

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: Set-up a breeze! Excellent documentation. Easy to use. Weakness: None found so far--don't really expect any. I chose this Plextor DVD writer not only for its excellent reviews in the magazines, but because of my previous positive experience with the internal Plextor CD-RW in my computer. Since getting this 708UF model, I have banged out over 30 DVDs without a hitch! S-M-O-O-T-H is the best way to describe its operation!

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: Fast and easy to use. Weakness: Won't work with USB 1.1 The unit was listed as coming with Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 but it was only the basic version. The cost to upgrade to 6 is the same as buying it. The fact that it won't work with USB 1.1 is a downer too as none of my PC's have 2.0 . The Firewire works great but the jack on my laptop for it is on the side which gets in the way of my trackball and my hand.

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: Fast, solid and it burns every time. Weakness: price, software My first DVD dual format 8X. Wow, what speed. I was amazed. The Plextor is very fast. I could burn my dvds 4.7 GB in less than 8 min (took around 13 min to read). The software included in the package is so so, I've used it with DVDXCopy Pl to make DVD backups and it works great. No coasters and no problems. Installation was a snap. Try both interfaces 1394/Hi-speed USB and pleased with it. I am...

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: Dual USB 2.0 or 1394 interfaces with both cables included. Flexible horizaontal or vertical moutning options. Nice burning software package included. Good burning speeds. Weakness: Nothing to mention here. I have been very pleased with this drive so far. The USB 2.0 interface works great and the flexibility of mounting the drive either vertically or horizontally has made it easy to find a spot for it on my desk. I haven't had any problems with the drive and would recommend it to others.

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: fast!!!! attracive design, installs easily, lots of software Weakness: none so far Works great, it's fairily quiet. It operates as advertised. Plextor has good reputation for quality and this drive proves it. They are top of the line. The only complaint i have is that the usb cable seems loose - but i had no problem with it.

Plextor PoweRec PX-708UF DVD-WriterStrengths: Build Quality. Plextor Reputation. Multiple format support. Weakness: None. Plextor delivers on its reputation with this product. Firewire or USB support. Although the included software is adequate, I wish Plextor would make a deal with Nero, so we could have the best software included with the best hardware.

Wait till the warranty wears off!
Strengths: I have no complaints on how it worked. For the short time that I owned it, it did exactly what it was advertised to do. Burned virtually every brand name media, even the lowest in quality.
Weakness: Wait till warranty expires, then you're in for a big surprise!
I could never recommend this company, or any of its products to anybody. I had my unit for just over a year, when it decided to take a crap. What they don't tell you is, after the warranty expires you're absolutely left in the cold. In other words, there's no way to repair or replace a defective unit! For this kind of money, this is absolutely ludicrous! To those contemplating purchasing anything...
