I remember when I bought my first dvd-writer for £180, and discs were £3 a disc. In fact my first cd-writer alone was £150 back in the day and I can remember paying £1 a disc.

Wow you had some bargins

my first CD writer was just that a CD writer, no re-write facility and a fast 2x speed which cost me £219.00. CD Discs were between £1.20 and £1.50 and the chance of a failed burn were so high it was depressing

I remember paying £2.50 for a cdr and £300 3 years ago for a Sony dru500a dvd writer 4X write but that wasnt normal then as most where x2 and it still works in my server I am using now.

I aint paying silly money any longer for hardware I wait until its more affordable even though I have waited years for Blue ray

And you look so young, Pop. , I remember when 20 meg hard drives were £1000, eek

Website has been changed to 110D, yet they have failed to change the model in the best seller list.


Has anyone been able to contact play.com, their returns seems to be automated, collection by Parcelpost which means staying in all day.

grrr

I remember sending back a faulty psp2 music game with microphone, Play only like to pay postage for return of DVD's so it tooks some persuading that it costs more for hardware than a dvd/cd.

Not sure I would buy from them with a value over £18.

I have just bought one of these without reading the whole thread,
rushed in as usual

Just checked the specs against the image that Britbrat provided and the new specs make no mention of Dvd ram writing, oh well, I suppose its still a good buy.

I nearly bought one too but waited and read thread. Guess you could argue and say you thought it was the other model and use my screen print.

i ordered one, realised it was a 110D but need a writer and this is as good as any. Obviously this is OEM, can someone tell me whether I can take the cables out of my CD rewriter and use them for this drive . . .thanks in advance

Yes just make sure that you select the same drive selection as your cdrw, i.e. master/slave/cs, then plug it in and it should be recognised when you boot up your pc.

Wouldnt give a reduction for me to keep so costing them £8 to pick up. Not the company I thought., now bottom of my search list. They have approached this as tho it was my fault for buying it :mad:
