Storage: DVD vs CD

2002-03-27 by Mitch Alland

As I am having trouble with my current SCSI interface CD burner, I have to decide whether to get an new FW-CD burner or a DVD burner. As my Photoshop files are usually about 240MB, perhaps that is the way to go.

I know of two DVD burners, the LaCie DVD-RW drive which costs $499 and the LaCie DVD DVD-R Second Generation drive which seems to be faster but whose costs I don't know.

What are your recommendations as to:

1. whether to go to a DVD burner, and
2. which DVD burner to get?
