How do I convince my friend that IDE CD burners are not worth the trouble, and that he should spring the extra cash for a nice Plextor SCSI one?
The Topic: SCSI vs. IDE?
Responses:
Hmmm... well, you know what? I'm tired of always having to answer the technical questions. I'm going to let my niece Karen take over the technical stuff for a while.
Hi there! I'm new here, so forgive me if I don't do everything right.
So, SCSI vs IDE, huh? Somehow when you described this place, you made it seem more interesting than this, Uncle Dilbert.
Well... uh.... maybe it's more interesting... usually.
Well, nevermind. Ok, back to the question. I'd say that yes, SCSI burners tend to be better, and suffer from fewer buffer underruns or burn hiccups, especially when they're on their own SCSI bus.
But then again, it's your friend's money, and it's not like you own stock in "The SCSI Corporation", so let him get an IDE drive, it'll be cheaper!
How'd I do?
Not bad, but you weren't funny.
I have to be funny too? Jeez, this is hard.
