I ahev problems with this burner and with Philips DVD+R media (I destroy 3 media)
I get error every time when DVD burner try to finish DVD at the end
I have try with Nero 6015 and with Nero 5.5.10.50
When I have burn with Nashua DVD-R works fine
You really have this drive? Before its release? Are you are preview tester or thinking about a different drive?
Like I said I have been in touch with a woman at plextor Europe and you will see the drive this month. The full specs are on their webpage. I will ask them to send me a drive so I can run some tests on it.

Only a few more day's till mine comes! (Fed-EX says Tuesday!) Got mine at newegg the first day it came in (was in stock for an hour maybe) and got it for 30 USD LESS than what it shot up to the next day(and is still now)!

I got mine at best buy in Sacramento on Sunday (9/7) It's great. Traded up from the DRU500a. Was a little worried about the 2MB buffer but it seems to write a little faster than the Sony and a lot smoother. I still havn't used the 8X disk it came with...I don't want to waste it. It still rips slower than most dvd roms but I don't plan on ripping with it anyway.
Happy Birthday to you
