I have a Duplicator available. I bough it less than 3 months ago for $225, and now something is wrong with the bottom RW drive. I think it just needs to be replaced and it should be good as new. I didn't want to mess with it, so I just bought a new one. If anyone is interested please contact me. I would be willing to trade it for some discs, or we can work something out.

Thanks

this is a very simple fix

newegg.com has nec internal drives at $ 45 shipped

there are 4 screws and two different plugs

its a 10 minute project to swap a drive

also every place i looked for duplicators has a warranty, did you try that method??

I just didn't want to mess with it, and I needed one with more targets anyway so I just got this new one.

Boutybouty,

Please share the brand name. After what I've been through with my DigiCopier, I'd like to know what other standalone burners I need to avoid.

BoutyBouty101 · 10-18-2005, 10:17 PM

Something like CopySmart. Also I had a Alera Technologies one that did the same thing.

BoutyBouty101 · 10-18-2005, 11:10 PM

Sorry it is an EZ-Dupe. It has a pioneer RW Drive though.

i have a SONY drive 7 targer burned assembled in taiwan
it is still under warranty BUT i have to pay a fortune to send it to taiwan and its like a 90-120 day turnaround, so the warranty is useless

i wont make that mistake again!

BoutyBouty101 · 10-18-2005, 11:29 PM

The duplicator is now spoken for. Sorry

ebay has tons of good deals on duplicators JUST BE SURE you stickwith a company that has someone at the # u can call that ACTUALLY KNOWS THE MACHINE

some of them are just warehouses that have no clue
others are really helpful in a problem spot
so be cautious

my first duplicator was a norazza from Tigerdirect. after hundreds of duplications withOUT a coaster, it started to spit out a few dudds. then coasters became more frequent until it got to the point that evry disc would fail.

Loren is right. if you swap the drives all is good. i swapped BOTH the reader drive and the burner drive. not sure how much of a differnece it makes BUT when i swapped the 2 drives i stuck with the same name brand. Liteon reader and a Liteon burner. very IN-expensive and fairly decent drives! when i opened up my duplicator for the first time i noticed that the reading drive was a Sony and the burning drive was a Samsung. No idea why Norraza would mix and match drives? not that it should matter

my second duplicator was a 7 bay tower from ebay. probably the Cheapest way to go as well. purchasing a BARE-BONES-DUPLICATOR. atleast thats what i did with my second duplicator. it comes with just the tower, power supply, and controler built in. you have to fill it with a reader and up to 7 burners. for 200 bucks it was still cheaper to fill the bare-bones-duplicator then it was to buy the 7 tower complete (900 bucks) crazy!

towers,readers, and burners are cheap! all the money in these dang things seems to be in the controller.
