edstar used our news submit to tell us that he has spotted this review of the BenQ DW1640 from over at ExtremeMHz. They ran the drive through some reading and writing tests including dual layer. But how does it perform? Here's what they had to say in their conclusion:
| Its read performance was remarkable with all formats supported. When compared to many other popular 16x drives currently on the market, it can actually be considered the fastest DVD ripper on the market. Not only does it lack a rip lock, but manages to provide the highest read rates seen on both single and dual layer DVD media. Don't forget its super quick load times. No other drive on the market can load and read discs quicker.

There's quite a few of us that are very interested in the DW1640, especially now that they have released the new BSKB firmware. Head on over to the ExtremeMHZ site and check out the entire review. Then of course please come back and visit the CD Freaks forums. There you can also discuss this drive with others that are looking at this drive as well or already have purchased one. The best place to start would be in our BenQ subforum, where there are several threads going on this drive.
