sony premium CD-RW CRX 160E-A1 12x/8x/32x is my first experience with re-write. This re-write has never worked and when installed literally stalled my computor. My technitian removed everything and reinstalled from scratch the drivers and programs. As soon as the re-write was plugged in again, problems with the mouse and everything fell apart again. Do not buy this garbage.....Looks like all sony products are defected according to others, even the most updated re-writes are full of flaws...
