Hi, i am not sure if the 'Burn Proof' technology for cdwriter has been arrived yet.

I just can't find it anywhere in Vancouver. I believe i need to order online.

Do u see any brands that has this technology, how much and where?

The 2 CD-Writers I know of that have BURN-proof technology are the Plextor PX-W1210TA/SW and a TDK VeloDrive, unsure about the TDK part number. I purchased the Plextor drive for $255.45, after tax, shipping, and a $30.00 off coupon at Buy.com. I believe the TDK drive was about $20.00 dollars more than the Plextor drive.


Happy hunting,

Greenhorn1.

Buffer UnderRuN Proof

CD-Writers use a buffer to write cds, the more applications or processing your computer does while burning, the lower the buffer drops. If the buffer gets too low then the CD-Writer doesn't have anything to write to the CD, and you get a buffer underrun error, a coster. that's why people say don't do anything when you're burning, you kill the buffer.

What BURN-proof does is when the buffer hits zero, then it marks the point on the cd where it last wrote. then it waits until the buffer fills up again, and once it does it finds the marked point, and begins writing again as if nothing had ever happened. this makes it practically impossible to coster a cd ever again, and you can do anything while the system is burning because you don't have to worry about the buffer dying. i've tested mine (plextor 12/10/32A) and it just simply rocks anything i've ever seen. burned a 80 min cd in no time at all, the entire time having adobe photoshop, 4 ie windows, outlook express, and quake 3 going all at once. it's beautiful, i couldn't coster it if i tried, short of hitting the POWER button.

Search Buy.com for a Ricoh 12x cdrw/dvd combo. They claim to have something better than BURNproof. I'm still looking for the PDF where I read that.

interesting, i haven't heard of a dvd/cdrw combo that even had remotely as fast write speed as a 12x plextor. i'm not aware of any new technologies besides BURN-proof, however i do know there are several companies with CDRWS incoporating BURN-proof right now (tdk, plextor, ricoh, and a few others, they're quite common now, just plextor's the best =). there are some that read the new CD99 (99 minute) cds but that's all i can think of.

I have the same drive (HP9110i). It is quite nice, probably one of the best IDE burners. However, it does not have this magical and wonderful burn-proof technology that the newer drives such as plextor carries.

i'm hesistant about HP burners because i had one that screwed up, and i heard things about some of the older models being recalled. i'm sure the new ones are much better, but i'd still stick with a plextor, you just can't beat em imho

As far as I know the ricoh has this "burn proof" technology as well as a button on the front that pauses the burn and you can restart the burn even after reebooting the computer.

Ricoh has that kind of function??

Is it a software side or hardware side?

i've never heard of that, but that'd be a pretty sweet feature. but when you think about it, i don't know how many times i'd want to pause a 5 minute burn =D
