Our friends from Digit-Life posted a review of NEC NR-9300A CD-R/RW. Here's what they're saying about it:

"The end of the epoch of pure CD-R/RW drives is not far off. In the technical respect such drives are close to their peak of development, and the DVD burning formats are now promoted as a new generation that should be considered as an integral part of modern PCs. But users do not hurry to part with their money because the storage cost on DVD is higher than on CD. Moreover, if you look at the market of CD-R/RW drives you will see that far not all companies are bounded by the current technical stage of development. That is why this market sector is still bringing out new products, and one of them will be studied today. So, meet a new NEC's drive named NR-9300A."
