A few days ago Iomega announced the availability of the new external Iomega 52x24x52x USB 2.0 CD-recorder. The drive will be shipped with Iomega's HotBurn Pro software and will cost about $160:
With performance of 52x24x52x (maximum write/rewrite/read), Iomega's new external CD-RW drive can burn a 60-minute CD in less than three minutes. Its digital audio extraction (DAE) rate of 48x also makes it Iomega's fastest drive ever for creating custom music compilations. Buffer under-run protection enables users to 'burn and work," running other applications while making a CD with less risk of failed burns. Hot plug-and-play capability with Microsoft® Windows® and Mac® OS operating systems makes system installation a breeze. And Hi-Speed USB (USB 2.0) capability enables full performance with suitably equipped computers, while maintaining full backwards compatibility (at reduced speed) with original USB systems, peripherals, and cables. |
