Plextor stops production of SCSI CDRoms
CDRInfo.com reports that Plextor Europe will stop selling SCSI CD-Rom's in Europe
The Plextor Europe has confirmed that they plan to stop selling SCSI-CDRoms in Europe (and in Middle-East, Africa) ,after the summer period, but.. Maybe something new is coming out? Yes it is! What that could be? Probably a new drive which will enter the SCSI DVD-Rom area
|
Update: Plextor will only stop producing the Ultraplex 40x cdrom for several months because their supplier of the most important Ultraplex' parts stopped producing them. Plextor is negotiating right now with other manufacturers.... they still want to continue their best drive when it comes to reading
Another update: after replying Plextor's email i received another one concerning this case. They tell me right now that nothing is for sure anymore about the production of the Ultraplex 40x. It may continue, it may not...... We'll see.....

Hmm, I don't mind this after all. I prefer their writers. Their readers aren't that great, get a Toshiba or a Kenwood!

But still I prefer SCSI

Plextor drives are the best readers in my opinion. Especially for DAE. Nothing better....

Plextor simply rules. I saw some other test and news on Plextor drives. One was a test between the latest 16X drives by Yamaha (8MB buffer!) and Plextor (only 2MB buffer) both IDE drives and the Plextor still was better then the Yamaha.
And check this: Plextor sold over 1.500.000 drives last year! 
Hey, sonic...did u ever had a plexreader?
I'v got it 4, and commerced even the kenwood and toshiba ones.
The kenwood is really great in speed, but gotta lotta problems with DAE extraction
and copies(if u don't use high quality CD-supports).
The toshiba IS the best EIDE CD-Reader even, but i've experienced glitches
when extracting audio, even from a brand-new original CD.
Plextor's reader r the best because they've implemented the C4 correction code....have you ever used EAC?
If not, you can't know how greatly u can improve your DAE quality!
Believe me, i'm a technician, and
i've passed the last 17 year becaming dumb as a brick trying to make the computer work! 
Happy Birthday to you
