Rating: - Disappointing
I bought this unit to replace an old Samsung SpinPoint model that had started malfunctioning. The Pioneer unit was installed in exactly the same position as the old Samsung one. However, whenever I play CDs or DVD films on the Pioneer unit, I get a constant clicking sound that occurs in sync with the unit's activity LED. It seems to be an internal grounding problem that I cannot fix.
Rating: - Nice, nippy replacement superdrive for a PowerMac
We bought this to replace the factory optical drive (also a Pioneer, so the mounts are the same) in our PowerMac G5 (running OS 10.3.9) when it started to return errors on every burn.
The new Pioneer drive was a doddle to install (once the bezel was prised off) and is delightfully fast in use. We use Toast 6 Lite for most burning, with which the drive works fine out-of-the-box, but have also installed Patchburn for native Finder/iTunes burning (not yet attempted).
We've used the drive for a week or so now, and out of 30 or so burns, only one has failed due to a verification error (possibly due to the media rather than the drive).
So, in summary: no problems and very fast. We're very happy with this drive so far.
