For my computer I have purchased CD ROM to Load the softwares.
I have Purchased Acer 52 X Model. Quality of Other Acer Products
was known to me so I have gone with ACER.
Installation was very easy normal man can do it. It comes along with
manual, Driver Floppy, Audio cable. Manual explains the details.
Quality of the drive is Good why because earlier I am using
ACER 50 X Model. That drive is exhausted so I have taken new one.
CD ROM Drive has a certain life. i.e. Number of rotations it
has to perform. Accordingly that laser lens gets exhausted.
Normally I found No Electronic part is repairable inside the
CD ROM. Only Mechanical problem can be solved. i.e. Tray Jam etc.
For repairing you have to pay Rs. 400/ to 500/- instead of that
just go for New one and you will get warranty also.
ACER 52 X is having one year Warranty. All CDs are working fine
on it what normally I use. i.e. HP, ACER, Samsung, 3M, Kodak
etc.
I have purchased it for Rs. 1650/-
It is a value product as for as price is concern.
My use of CD ROM Drive is more as compare to normal man use
because I am installing different softwares on my machine
so my CD Rom will exhaust little early i.e. 14-15 months.
