EliteABombAZ Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I'd get one that does both + & -... and shoot for a dual layer drive. I think Fry's will have one for $39 this BF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest general41391 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 So is this the DVD Drive that lets me BURN movies onto DVDS? or is it just a player because the emachine comes with a player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucdcrush Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 If it's advertised as a DVD writer or DVD burner than it will do that. I haven't seen any dvd burners lately that don't write to both DVD +/- R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest general41391 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Can the eMachine BURN DVDs without buying anything extra? If not, will the SONY 16x thing from Best Buy Burn DVDs? I AM STILL CONFUSEd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleRider Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 The eMachine at BB, the one for $150, does NOT burn DVDs, only plays DVDs and can burn CDs. The drive included is known as a combo drive....CDRW/DVD-ROM drive. You will need to add a DVD-burner, like the one Brad linked to, in order to burn DVDs. BB has the Sony for $39 after rebates, Newegg has a nice NEC or Pioneer for around $45 shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaleRider Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Actually, Newegg is having a sale right now and the NEC ND-3550 is $39.99 with free shipping. The Plextor PX-740A is marked down to $54.99 with free shipping....the Plextor is considered by some the best in optical drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
