Iomagic CD DUPLICATOR USB 2.0 EXT-52X24X52 54X LCD DISPLAY ( I5252DE ) Reviews
I have burned a few coasters at top speed and have since moved down to 32x recording speed. Since that time, I have had flawless copies (sometimes from heavily scratched source disks). This product is a great buy IMO.
This duplicator is a piece of crap so I'd advise you to not buy anything from I/O Magic. I got one of these for Christmas 2005. It worked well for about five months and then the bottom drive made a loud cracking sound. After that it no longer recognized discs. After only two days of use, the bottom drive started rejecting any blank CD I put into it. I/O Magic replaced the machine with a different model that had a smaller, inferior LCD display. Spend a little more money and get something that will work.
This device is fairly quick, and I use the duplicator as a stand alone product. The device is very simple to operate. I am not sure why I/O magic would waist their time, effort and money on making this blue light that flashes, but then agian, I barely paid $100.00 for the unit. The only problem the I have with the deivce other than the disk error message that I mentioned (remember that the CDs I have made are working fine) is the blue access light on the top. I too get an error message that states bad CD-R disk, but the disks work fine, but I am coping audio CDs. I had the unit out of the box and operating in less than 5 min. I purchased this device from staples for $113.46 including tax and free shipping.
After the first dozen or so CD-Rs I copied, it started having a hard time reading some CDs, or would tell me the CD-R media was bad. I needed a stand alone unit, as I needed to make copies of about 200 CDs, and didn't want to tie up my computer. I'm returning mine to the store after making about 20 bad discs, that my burner in my computer was able to handle without fail. At first I chalked it up to poor media, but when I started to copy some CDs I hard burned on a TDK burner, with expensive media, the problems persisted. This unit looked like it had some cool features, like the USB port, so I could use it as an external CD burner as well.
