Plextor PX-760A DVD Burner - [hardware] 10:15 AM EDT - May,29 2006 - (1 comments)
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.
