Excellent burner but needs better software

by yusakugo Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, May 10 '00
Pros: Fast, easy to use, reliable, HP warranty, SCSI power and speed, reasonable cost
Cons: additional price of SCSI card (and cable if external), slightly higher price than ATAPI/IDE version, average software package
I've had this drive for 8 months now... I love this drive. It's great for backing up data, making data CDs, and decent for music CD creation (1-2x speed seems to be the most stable way of making music CDs).

First this is one of the faster...

Fast burns and no coasters

by WillMontu , Nov 22 '00
Pros: Fast drive, big buffer, fast SCSI interface, few coasters
Cons: Windows 2000 software costs extra
I originally wanted to get a Yamaha 6X SCSI CD burner from TigerDirect. It never shipped, so I ended up going for the HP 9200 Plus Series. It cost a bit more, but it was faster. The drive can write at 8X, re-write at 4X, and read at a quick 32X. This...

Burn Baby Burn

by stevelarrison Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 07 '00
Pros: Good value, fast, SCSI is made for CD-Rs
Cons: Cost of SCSI card for people new to the format
Hewlett Packard has a well deserved reputation for quality. This CD-RW is evidence of that quality. This drive has everything that you could want in a CD-RW. Here is a quick run down of what you get, and why it is important.

What a wondeful CD-RW drive! I can't ask for anything more

by Lazer_Racer , Nov 27 '00
Pros: quiet, quick, excellent quality, durable
Cons: can't think of any
The HP CD-Writer Plus 9200i Series, CD-RW drive is amazing. It may not be top of the line, or the best thing out there, but it sure can compete. With Write speeds up to 8x, Rewrite speeds at 4x, and read speeds at 32x, this drive is amazing.

Would be 5 Stars if it wasn't for poor software

by matwood , Nov 08 '00
Pros: Fast, huge buffer, can back up any CD
Cons: Cost, poor version of Adaptec EZ CD Creator included
I had just sold my trusty Imation CD-burner and needed a replacement. I have had HP, Yamaha, QPS, Ricoh, Imation, and Smart & Friendly (SCSI and IDE versions). I was searching for a drive that could do a few things:

1) Was fast at...

CD-Writer Plus 9310i

by alberto , Jun 26 '00
Pros: Fast, reliable (so far), not too expensive
Cons: Software doesn't handle MP3, speed is hard to exploit
This review is listed in the wrong place because epinions does not yet list the HP 9300 series CD burners, only the 9200.

The 9310i is an internal IDE CD writer with speeds of 10x for writing, 4x for re-writing, and 32x for reading.

FAST AND EASY

by outbackdave , May 20 '00
Pros: Very fast speeds, easy to use software
Cons: none as of yet
This review is actually on the 9300i CD writer plus, but the 9200i is the closest product I could review. The 9300 has a 10x write speed, a 4x rewrite speed, and a 32x read speed. This is super fast. I was going to purchase the 9200i, but then when...

An opinion on the HP 9210e CD Writer

by PJax , Apr 16 '00
Pros: A wonderful machine
Cons: Not so wonderful service
This is a fast, accurate and very quiet machine. It came packed in a special inflatable cushion in a box within a box within a peanut-filled third box - very protected. The workmanship is the same high quality that I've found in HP's printers and I...

Pros: high quality, decent price

Let's get ready to burn

by dkny2000 , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Lots of helpful software + 4mb buffer
Cons:
The CD-Writer Plus software is essentially a shell wrapped around Adaptec's Easy CD Creator and DirectCD, along with HP's Disaster Recovery (akin to Adaptec's Take Two). HP adds its Fast Format, which lets you begin writing to a still-formatting CD-RW...

by rjohns55 , Jun 13 '00
Pros: speed, use, programs that came with it
Cons: creating data labels (not music, just the data)

One of the best

by jrjohnston , Aug 09 '00
Pros: price, speed, reliability
Cons: limited Windows 2000 support from HP
When I got the 9200e drive, it was one of the fastest available. I did a lot of research and decided on a SCSI type drive. Many friends had had problems with the IDE versions. I decided on the HP based on price and reputation. I have not regretted my...

Never Buy A audio Cd again?

by h00pz13 , Jun 12 '00
Pros: good quality fairly easy to install
Cons: not the fastest on the market which is a 12x write
Are you a frequent cd buyer? spending 15 bucks a cd and buy as many as 10 a month? Instead of going out to the store and buying the cd why not pay around $280 and get this great hp 9200i series cd-rw? You can download any songs you want and burn them...
