Our drive reviewer and forum moderator Tor Magne, better known as OC-Freak, has wrapped up a new review again. This time he took a close look at Pioneer's latest dual format DVD burner, the DVR-107D. Pioneer were among the first manufacturers of DVD burners. Their new drive offers 8x on DVD±R and 4x for DVD±RW. Here is a part of his conclusion:
| Conclusion: The fact that earlier Pioneer drives have been very good and problem free made our expectations for this drive very high. It's also probably one of the most awaited drives the last few months. And finally here it is. But did it meet our expectations? We are afraid we have to answer no to that, but you should decide that after reading this review and this conclusion.We think that many will find it annoying that no 4x DVDR discs works at 8x writing speed and that few 8x DVDR discs works at 8x. We did also expect the media compatibility to be almost perfect since it's almost perfect with the older DVR-106 drive, but there were quite a few discs that the drive was unable to detect. Another serious issue is the CD-RW writing problems; Many drives have problems reading the discs written by the Pioneer DVR-107D and the CD-RW discs becomes unusable after few times of use. |
