Today we're proud to present you with our review of the current fastest DVD recording in the world, the Plextor PX-708A. With recording speeds of 8x DVD+R, 4x DVD+RW, 4x DVD-R, 2x DVD-RW, 40x CD-R and, last but not least, 24x CD-RW you will understand why the new Plextor DVD recorder was very anticipated. In our review we've put the drive through our usual tests to hopefully give you an idea of how the drive performs when doing various tasks:
|
Now, about seven months later, Plextor has released their second DVD recorder and this time Plextor made sure that their drive would be something special. With their new PX-708A drive Plextor has released the world's first 8x DVD+R recorder which means that it's possible to record a complete DVD in less than 10 minutes! Another thing that's interesting is that Plextor has made this drive a dual format recorder, meaning that it supports both the DVD-R(W) and DVD+R(W) formats. |
By looking at the Plextor PX-708A's features the drive looks like a great performer. Is this indeed the case? Well head on over to our complete review of the drive to find out! Comments and/or questions are of course always welcome. You react on the review itself (via the last page of the review) or you can ask your questions in our Plextor Forum.
Update:
I completely overlooked the fact that the Plextor PX-708A drive can be
'unlocked' to allow it to read DVD-Video a lot faster (instead of only 2x as the
review stated). The review has been updated accordingly. Sorry for the mistake,
it (hopefully ;)) won't happen again!
