*WARNING**DO NOT BUY THE SONY DR510A WRITER FOR THE TIME BEI

[dave25]

Hi guys

I just bought my second Sony DR510A Writer today it lasted 2 hours, the first time it lasted a few days. They both had the same problems, it threw a error message whilst burning and basically stopped working with the light continiuosly flashing. I contacted Sony UK today and they said that
they are aware of this problem and it is a hardware fault and will fix if i want to return it to them. Well i will be returning mine to the shop i bought it from tomorrow. So if there any peeps out there
thinking of buying one (UK) i would wait until they sort the problem out!

I'm on my second Sony drive, the first one just up and died.

So this is a pretty common thing. the worst part about it is that I had to wait 3 months just to get the dam thing now I have to send it back. It is such a pain. Well it is getting collected today fingers crossed and all that. Will purchase another make but does any other make match the sony's spec???
