Strange that you should ask. Did you buy it from the roadside?

[dinesh_mettur]

hello i bought from shop only but it is oem so i asked here!!!!

The G120 is same as the sony dual dvd writer but the CD writing/reading speed is only 40x whereas the normal one does this at 48x. No ther specs diff.
I personally say this OEM version is better than the normal acc to my personnal exp.

Is it possible to write with 18x speed like 830A ??

[codename_romeo]

i think the only writer with 18x is Samsung.........

[da_tcpip]

even if it does write at 18x.. try finding media which supports that speed

AFAIK they are not the same... 830A is a benq drive whereas the G120 is an optiarc(NEC and Sony consortium) drive. The G120 has better write quality. 18X is a marketing gimmick. There is no 18X media available only a few TY and MCC discs can be oversped to 18X and you get neither of that media in India .

hey buddy !!! SONY G120A i too have it and its the same other than its a n oem to Sony DRU-830 ok so read the text carefully at a renowned hardware tester site. ok.. and yeah you are correct that no 18X media is available but Sony itself makes 18X media DVD which is not availablle loosely its in 10 box packs .. look for it .. and its available in india at delhi nehru place market...
