TechwareLabs has posted a review of the AOpen DSW1685L 18X (err 16x) Triple Format DVD ReWriter here on their website. The specs on the DSW1685L include the following:

  • E-IDE, PIO Mode-4, ATAPI, UDMA 66 interface
  • 2 MB data buffer memory
  • Supports:
  • DVD-RAM at 5x
  • DVD+R DL at 8x
  • DVD-R DL at 8x
  • DVD+R at 16x
  • DVD-R at 16x
  • CD-R at 48x
  • DVD+RW at 8x
  • DVD-RW at 6x
  • CD-RW at 24x

Here’s my only problem thus far with the drive – TechwareLabs claims this is an 18x drive but does anyone see the specs for the unit? Nowhere does it say 18x at all. As far as I am concerned – this is a 16x drive. Hmm alrighty…. so here’s the verdict from TechwareLabs:

You should buy the AOpen Triple Format DVD Rewriter if you looking for a reliable drive which will burn just about any format and do it quickly. We recommend you take a look at this drive, you won’t be disappointed.
