Title: fast but...
Product review: I had a mostly bad experience.The Good: It is the fastest drive for sale at the store. It was pretty easy to install the drive, Adaptec software, and make CD-R and CD-RW data discs.The Bad: When I tried to use the CD Creator tool to record a new audio CD-R, an error told me the drive was already in use by Adaptec DirectCD. I tried to stop and uninstall DirectCD. Eventually I went to the Yamaha support web site and downloaded the latest firmware.The Ugly: When I ran the firmware upgrade, it hung half way through and left my system unstable. Since the drive was no longer recognized at all by Windows 98, I decided to return it for a refund.Maybe I did something wrong. It was my first CD-R drive. However my next drive will not be a Yamaha drive.
