C't test results. burners.

[Scour]

Thanks, MediumRare, nice to see some results after long time ago

Yes, I´m not very pleased about the results of the LG GH-20, my own results looks better

Strange thing also is the DL from TY, never used it, like 99,9% of german users

The prices of DVD-writers are down, maybe c´t don´t wanna make much work and test only a few media

The last issue of c’t mag (Nr 7/2009) has a test of 6 slim line DVD burners
that can be used on a notebook only connected through USB:

Plextor PX-608CU
Samsung Super-Writemaster SE-S084B
Samsung TruDircet SE-T084M
LiteOn eSAU208
Sony DRX-S70U-R
LG Electronics GP08LU10

Hm, maybe because of the Netbooks without internal drive.

I took a look at the test, I remember best in wrting Quality CD/DVD/DVD DL is LG with ++/+/o
2nd is the Plextor with +/+/o

Worst is a Samsung with --/--/- (not sure the DL-result)

Do they say anything about the reliability of the power supply through USB ?

Hm, i only took a quick look. I think i don´t see this article again because monday the next magazin arrives

In my case I'm using an external USB charger to provide power, instead of using 2 USB ports.
