Tom's Hardware Review of Yamaha CRW F1

Posted by michael on from the spin-the-bottle dept.

Tremblay99 writes "Tom's Hardware has a review of the Yamaha CRW F1 CD burner. Not interested, you say? Well, it can burn images on the media side of a CD. While it's not the fastest burner around, it can do CD-RWs at 24x. Not bad at all."

    ...too bad Tom's Hardware is still one of the most biased, misleading, and falsified tech sites out there.

    Try a few others instead:

      I would have followed your links if you had bothered to make them clickable.

      But I guess your dick was dripping with the anticipation of some easy karma and you got ahead of yourself...

    500 MB? Really? Virtually every disc I burn has 100MB or less on it. They're so cheap you can waste the space, and what better way to waste a bit of space than with a cute picture.
    That's something I've never been able to do, myself. Yes, they're cheap, but they're also a PITA to the environment and the last thing we need is ways to generate more landfill at a faster rate than we already are. (Don't even suggest recycling programs - governments are pathetic when it comes to that sort of thing, including allowing a corporation to go curb to curb collecting..).

    The primary reason I've only gone halfway through my first (and only) spindle is because I force myself to justify the creation of a CD before I burn it. I bought a 5-pack of high speed CD-RWs for the times when I want to throw a couple hundred MBs or less of data onto a disc - because that, IMHO, is expendable.

    Heck, I'm even ashamed of myself for burning two Gentoo ISOs when I could have done perfectly well extracting them to my HDD and using a Linux boot disk instead.
