Solve : Adding a dvd burner? |
|
Answer» I am wondering if my COMPUTER can handle a 16x DVD burner. The current config is: I have noticed that on most dvd burners they require at least 1.4 mhz . I have 1.2.I assume you mean 1.4 GHz. From my experience, Burning CD's always slows the computer down when you're multitasking. my mistake. Do you see a problem with the addition of the burner? I have found this one http://meritline.stores.yahoo.net/samsung-sh-s202n-bebn-lightscrible-dvd-drive-with-software.html I am wondering if it will work with my setup, being it is so old. It doesn't say anything about your CPU speed.The link that I posted was for a drive that I found that was cheap. It doesnt give much info about the unit. I have read other manuals for drives and most recommend a cpu that is at least 1.4Ghz. On hooking it up, can I just remove one of my cd drives and REPLACE it with the DVD drive. I believe it is hooked up with IEEE. From the specs you listed, I would think you would be fine. It might slow your system down while actually burning, but if you close any extra PROGRAMS, i don't see you having any problems. I have an NEC ND-3540A DVD burner that works great for me. I dont see it available anymore from Newegg, but I always had good LUCK with NEC products. |
