Posted by timothy on from the far-faster-than-average-burners-remember dept.

Tesko writes "It seems the first 12x DVD+R drive has been released by none other than Plextor, with their Model PX-712A (Product link here). The drive's write speed includes, 48X CD-R, 24X CD-RW, 12X DVD+R, 8X DVD-R, 4X DVD+RW, 4X DVD-RW. And it's read speed comes in at 48X CD-ROM/CD-R, and 16X DVD-ROM. Also noteworthy, the drive apparently has a 8MB buffer."

    Damn you slashdot, for reminding me my order is now 7 days overdue :(

    Still, looks like a quality drive :) The biggest gripe I had with a cheap NEC drive, was the hugeeeeee delay the drive has recognising the drive when a disc is put in.
