hmm...correct me if i'm wrong:
Plextor PX-708A, Lite-On LDW-401S, Lite-On LDW-411S can do this too, no? (other drives too, i'm sure, these are the first that came to mind).
OK they probably mean only among the drives in that review.
still a very blatant error IMO. they should know better than that.
not very good for THG's reputation.
