external, like in: oops it slipped into my bag :D

more like in: 450 people know it is supposed to be there and is used daily. that kinda oops :p

hm, 19 minutes for a dvd-r is NOT good, I burn mine at < 14 minutes (on 4x).

@ jmke: could u fix the link of your first post (can't find the exact type) coz I'm interested in buying a part of it, if the offer is still standing

the product is no longer listed it seems.

I'm going to have to use all discs, sorry :/

I found the problem.
if I write @ 4x: 13min
if I write @ 8x: 19min...

going to change my HD layout, too many HD's connected to one little PCI IDE card, slows down the whole PC.

I'm going to back up my 3x maxtor 120gb. That's why I need all them DVDs.

HDs rearranged + found at why plextor was in PIO4 mode, on older models you had to put a jumper to enable UDMA, on this one you have to remove it.

:hello:

Plextor is :king:!
