seven or eight years ago, he was definitely a pioneer. You don't even need an optical drive now. Now some thin books don't have optical drives, and they are facing the situation of being eliminated. So don't worry about which brand is good. It is estimated that in a few years, optical discs will be replaced by USB flash drives or other storage media.
Question 2: What kinds of optical drives are there? Which brand is better? The selection and recommendation of optical drives
Not long ago, I saw an article written by a friend who wanted to buy optical drives (CD-ROMs), complaining that the current optical drive market is very mixed, which often makes buyers feel at a loss. As a merchant, the author also found that many friends who buy machines are clear about what kind of CPU and motherboard to buy, but lack understanding of optical drive. Therefore, the author introduces some experiences and opinions to you here.
brand and speed of optical drives
brands of optical drives can be roughly divided into four categories:
1? Japanese brands, including Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic, Hitachi, NEC, Sanyo, America, America, etc.
2? Korean brands, including Samsung, LG, Gao Shida, Hyundai and Taiyi;
3? China Taiwan Province brand, including Acer? , elite, BTC, ASUS, etc.
4? Singapore brands, including innovation and maintenance; Other brands such as Philips are hard to list.
generally speaking, Japanese brand CD-ROMs are relatively stable, with a flat performance curve. After long-term use, their performance is not obviously degraded, and their noise is low. However, their reading ability is average, their panel design is conservative, and they often have no play keys, and their styles are solemn but not very beautiful. Korean brand CD-ROM drives generally have better reading ability and better panel design, but after long-term use, their performance drops obviously and their noise is also greater. China Taiwan Province brand's CD-ROM drive is slightly worse than South Korea's, with distinctive panel and stable performance, but the noise is still a little louder. The CD-ROM drive of Singapore brand is better than that of Japanese brand. The panel design is very beautiful, and the buttons feel comfortable. Some innovative products also have intelligent remote controls, but the performance is still not as stable as that of Japanese brands, and the noise is a little louder. Note that the above views only represent the general situation, and the specific situation may vary with the origin, assembly level, a particular brand and other factors.
Nowadays, people have a lot of choices about the speed of optical drives, ranging from quadruple speed to 34 times speed. The specific choice of optical drive depends on the demand. Generally speaking, friends who are used for general home entertainment and playing CD games can consider buying optical drives with eight times to sixteen times speed. For friends who don't often install and use large-scale software and often watch VCD on the computer, quadruple-speed CD-ROM drive has good disk reading ability and low price, which is worth considering. The CD-ROM used is of good quality. Friends who have high speed requirements can buy CD-ROMs with 24 times speed and 34 times speed, but they must pay attention to the use of high-power computer power. I have seen many high-speed CD-ROMs bought by friends who used 386 and 486 fail to work normally, but when they returned them, they found that the CD-ROMs were good. After careful inspection, they found that the power supply of their computers was insufficient.
Here, I want to clarify some misunderstandings of some friends about high-speed optical drives. First of all, the actual transmission rate of high-speed optical drives often cannot reach the theoretical nominal value, so there is no need to blindly pursue the nominal speed of optical drives. Secondly, the general view now is that the higher the speed of the optical drive, the worse the disc reading ability. This view is somewhat biased. With the improvement of production technology and the application of new technologies, the disc reading ability of the high-speed optical drive is not necessarily worse than that of the low speed, such as the innovation of 24 times speed and macro? Twenty-four-speed optical drives all adopt technologies such as automatic deceleration, CAV and CLV mixed reading, and their reading ability is quite good. Therefore, the main disadvantages of high-speed CD-ROM drive are not poor disk reading ability, but high CPU occupancy, noise, vibration, power consumption and high calorific value. After putting in a poor-quality CD, you can obviously feel the vibration and hear the rotating noise. After working for a period of time, you can feel that the CD is a little hot when you take it out. But then again, the high-speed CD-ROM drive is much faster after all. Therefore, if you have a spacious and stable chassis and a strong power supply, and can tolerate a little noise and vibration, I still suggest buying a high-speed CD-ROM drive as much as possible, which is beneficial to protect your investment and adapt to the requirements of new technologies.
origin and price of CD-ROM drive
The origin of CD-ROM drive is a very important selection basis, but it is often ignored by everyone. Just as Japanese color TV sets are not necessarily produced in Japan, many CD-ROMs are now produced in Malaysia, Hong Kong, the mainland of China and other places. Due to the problems of assembly level and production technology, the performance of the same brand products produced in different regions is also different, and even the quality of each batch of products is different. Generally speaking, the country of origin is the best, followed by Malaysia and Hong Kong, and the assembly level in the Mainland needs to be improved. In the market, it is difficult for people to reach a * * * understanding of the brand of CD-ROM drive, which is caused by the nonstandard production and marketing channels of CD-ROM drive. Sometimes, not only buyers fail to pay attention to the origin of CD-ROM drive, but even merchants ... > >
question 3: what brand of optical drive is good? considering the quality, it is not recommended to buy LG. Samsung is the most misnomer among the first-line brands except mobile phones and monitors.
1. Personally, I suggest buying the DVR-117ch of Pioneer IDE, which is recorded at 2 times the speed, about 19 yuan. It is cheaper. The DVR-217CH with SATA interface is about 21 yuan, and according to some calculations, if it is used as a professional burning shop for a long time, the general brand will use it for 3 months and the pioneer will use it for 4 months. Of course, SONY can be considered, but there are many fakes, and I hope the landlord can find the genuine one. Generally, the life of an ordinary burner is 2 hours, and it is best not to let him read the CD at ordinary times, mainly for burning. The reading effect of burner is not better than that of ordinary DVD drive. You should install two burners and ordinary drive. The first brand of pioneer optical storage is cheap and good. Puckett's professional storage is too expensive to use.
In other words, LG's firmware is a little poor-hehe, Samsung's optical drive and burner are also advised not to buy, and the stability is too poor. The quality of CRT display is still reliable. If it is not bad for twenty dollars, it is still good to buy a pioneer, which is stable, almost silent and very quiet. BenQ belongs to the second-line brand <

3. Cheap 2.3-line brand, DVD burner price in 17 yuan.
Pioneer's recording compatibility is very good, and the recording quality is very good. For the sake of quality, it is better to sacrifice the recording speed, which is also one reason for Pioneer's long life. Sony's burning compatibility is poor, but reading burned discs and other finished discs is better than Pioneer's, and Sony's life is shorter than Pioneer's.
also, the CD should be genuine, and the -R CD DVD-R/RW is suitable for Pioneer. Sony is in the +R camp-DVD+R/RW.
Question 4: It's hard to say what brand of external drives is beautiful. I recommend Suochang and Asus, but not others. To tell the truth, Blu-ray is useless and not popular, and the price is generally between 12 and 15.
question 5: what brand of notebook optical drive is good? considering the quality, it is not recommended to buy LG.
Samsung is the most misnomer among the first-line brands except mobile phones and monitors.

question 6: which brand of computer optical drive is good? Jianxing is the best. At present, all Sony optical drives in China are manufactured by Jian Hu, and most of ASUS and Pioneer are manufactured by Jian Xing. Why not just buy lite? As for which grade to buy, it depends on your own use. There are all grades of D-engraving, dvd and Blu-ray.
question 7: it doesn't matter what brand of computer CD-ROM is at a good price, but the technical indicators should be suitable. With the strong promotion of manufacturers, DVD has entered the era of popularization from its rise. Nowadays, most mainstream DVD-ROM in the market stay near 3 yuan, such as BenQ, Asus, and Meg's "Dark Horse" DVDs, and the price difference between them and CD-Roms is less than 1 yuan. Moreover, Meg's "dark horse" DVD is being promoted at a price of 269 yuan, which further narrows the distance from CD-ROM and makes consumers more inclined to DVD-ROM. There are many DVD brands in the market, and the competition is fierce. The price difference between products is already quite weak. Price is no longer important as a decisive factor for consumers to buy products. At present, the products of mainstream brands in DVD market, such as BenQ, Asus and Meg, are mainly 16X. Besides looking at the appearance of products carefully, we should not underestimate the factors such as seek time and data cache of DVD drive, because the index parameter of seek time directly reflects the ability of DVD drive to respond quickly to system commands, specifically, it reflects the speed of DVD drive reading data from receiving system commands to the designated position on DVD disc. If the index parameter is larger, it means that the reading time of DVD drive unit data is shorter and the quick response ability of DVD drive is strong. At present, mainstream products such as ASUS 16XDVD, Pioneer DVD-121, BenQ 165PDVD, and Meg's "Dark Horse" DVD have all reached the reading ability of 16X. Only in CD-ROM reading, Pioneer is slightly poor. In addition, the index parameter of data cache can also reflect the performance of DVD drive as a whole. Generally speaking, the larger the data cache capacity, the better the overall performance of DVD products. Therefore, according to the above analysis, everyone should try to choose a DVD drive with short seek time and large data cache capacity. At present, the data cache capacity of DVD drives on the market is mainly 256KB to 512KB, among which mainstream products such as Meige "Dark Horse" DVD-ROM and Pioneer DVD-121A are mostly 256KB, while BenQ Silver Moonlight 16X reaches 512KB. Overall performance is the basis of purchasing. In the process of selecting DVD drive, the most important link is to carefully examine the product and inspect the overall performance of the product. It is best to try it out and experience the quality of the product personally. At present, most friends consider more about the error correction ability of products when buying. It is true that the error correction ability of products is worth considering, but it cannot be used as a standard to measure the quality of products. Only when the overall performance and function can be relatively stable and reliable can it be a truly excellent product in design and manufacture. Imagine that DVD has changed from a "disc killer" to a "disc rusty hand" only a few days after you bought your product. How do you feel if you don't read any discs and pick them? Therefore, more attention should be paid to the overall performance of the product when purchasing. Especially stability and reliability, which are the basis of products and applications. Without good overall performance, even if other conditions are quite good, it is in vain. Of course, in addition to testing the overall performance of the product, we should also look at the anti-noise ability and disc format support ability of the DVD drive. Generally speaking, the stronger the anti-noise ability and the more disc formats supported, the more DVD drives should be our choice. As a mainstream product, except for the unreadable DVD-RAM format, other formats are compatible with BenQ 165PDVD, ASUS 16XDVD, Pioneer DVD-121A, and Meige "Black Horse". ■ Service is the key to product selection. Now, in the DVD product market, its brands and types are dazzling, and the quality is also mixed, and the situation of confusing the eyes has not changed. Coupled with the difficulty of quality control in the production of DVD drive, frequent use leads to the fact that DVD is a consumable product and needs to be replaced frequently, so the warranty content and warranty period promised by the manufacturer are closely related to the interests of users. This is also the most attractive place for famous brand manufacturers compared with general manufacturers. At present, the warranty period of small manufacturers in the market is generally three months, and the warranty period of brand manufacturers is longer. The after-sales service promised by the manufacturer is the net cost to be paid by the manufacturer, which matches the failure rate and repair rate of the product. The longer the warranty period, the greater the cost. Only big manufacturers with strength and qualified product quality can have the confidence to make a competitive warranty commitment. And generally speaking, big manufacturers like ASUS, BenQ and Meg operate in the IT market ... > >
