So what's new to the PX-W1210TS/BS?
- Ultra SCSI interface
- The drive comes with 4MB of buffer, doubling it from PX-W1210A.
- The drive now supports an advanced version of BURN-Proof since the length gap reduced to 2-5µm when PX-W1210A had 40µm.
- The drive now supports cooling fan!
- The drive supports 1x writing.
Of course it supports, as the PX-W1210A. 12x writing, 10x re-writing and 32x reading and of course 10xHS RW writing. The package will include: BHA B's Recorder GOLD for Windows (Japanese), BHA B's Clip (Packet Writing) and Plextor Manager 2000.
PX-W1210TS/BS will start be selling in Japan around October at an estimated street price of 40,000yen (380US$).

I'm going to cry. This isn't fair. I just got my 12/4/32 a couple of months ago and the 4x RW pisses me off!! I WANT THIS DRIVE!!!! but I cant afford it.
Anyone want to buy it for me as an X-mas present? )
This has got to be THE unit to have. Where can I actually purchase this if it is only available in Japan? Please link me to a retailer that will ship to me in the U.S.A. Thnx ever so much!!
Talk about some seroius ass kicking PLEXTOR style !!!
Time to upgrade my
Plextor PXR-820T, cost is no problem. I can handle living on McDonald for a while till this is paid off.
Yup agree with you there PaRaDox, we all have been down that road! Putting our food on a backburner so we can have our toys. I just bought a 19" Sony Trinitron £480, it rocks! Also have the new ASUS A7V motherboard and a 800Mhz Thunderbird. oh yeah a Plextor 12/4/32 SCSI(suits me) I think I have an average system. he he, 2 7200rpm 20gig drives, Geforce 2 GTSm 192meg of mem, and a poxy 56k modem :-0(
Indeed
I currently have the Plex 12/4/32. I already expected problems with 2MB/IDE cuz most programs don't support BURN-proof yet. Now, even if they don't support burnproof, it still will be very stable for 12x writing, just like mine.
I got the 12/10/32 IDE and I only can rw at 2 speed bcoz the princo's I bought are 2 speed (I think) Nero just burns at 2 speed while when I would put another CDR in, it will go at 12 speed. This sux bcoz I got a f#cking 50 pieces of these rewritables.. Anyone interested maybe?
I have the ide version with burnproof-it is excellent-but does burnproof only work when copying discs on the fly.As I can't get it to work any other way.
