CD Freaks reviewed Plextor's latest flagship DVD re-writer, the Plextor PX-760A. This burner features 10x writing support to DVD+R Double Layer media, 8x DVD+RW, 6x DVD-RW and 6x DVD-R DL writing speed. Like the Plextor PX-755A, this DVD burner also features PlexEraser, SecureRecording, Buffer underrun proof, Silent Mode, SpeedRead, GigaRec, VariRec, Q-Check and PoweRec, which can be controlled using its PlexTools Professional suites.

The main positive points: The Plextor PX-760A has excellent DVD+R writing performance, with its 18x writing speed cutting the time taken to burn this media type. Setting aside the 18x writing speed, the Plextor PX-760A 16x and 12x burns return very respectable writing times. The Plextor PX-760A can write most DVD+R with very good quality. PoweRec and Auto Strategy assured the best results possible over our range of tested media. CD-R/RW write quality was also very good, the Plextor PX-760A handling some troublesome media with ease. CD-R/RW media compatibility was also very good. The supplied software is also of very good quality, with PlexTools Professional supplied with the drive. Also included is the ever popular Nero suite, and Pinnacle suite 8.3 LE. This should provide enough software for the beginner and the more advanced user. There are also trial versions of many other software packages, which will allow the end user a chance to try out software before they buy it. The build quality of the Plextor PX-760A is of a very high standard, the media tray being very smooth in operation, and the drive itself feeling very well built. The media testing capabilities of the Plextor PX-760A is second to none, with PlexTools Professional/XL providing the most sophisticated media tests yet seen on a home user drive. Last but by no means least. The 2 year collect and return warranty (within the EU) is the best around.

The main negative points: There are very few negative things to say about the Plextor PX-760A. Some work is required to improve DVD+R DL write quality with certain DVD+R DL media. The Plextor PX-760A performed very poorly in our "Sheep tests". Let us hope this can be improved with a future firmware update.

There are very less people now days who uses the DVD for the media options.I have found about the article writing option for the students where students getting the help about the https://edubirdie.net/ site and they can get help digitaly through the media and DVD options are becoming much older now days.
