Plextor, tot voor kort SCSI-only, slaat met de nieuwe 8-speed PlexWriter 8/4/32A het (kosten besparende) IDE pad in. Hier wat info van de Plextor site:

Hmm, ik was net van plan om binnenkort een 8/20 te gaan halen, SCSI lijkt me toch handiger voor dat soort zaken. De complete spec sheet van die nieuwe drive lees je trouwens hier.
