My friend wanna buy F series but very hard to find. KLCC sold out including display set. BTS sold out too. Only yesterday the stock came, but today already sold out.

Yesterday I just bought my own Y series xD @ RM 2,900. Weee ~ Ex-staff from Sony really good

No thank,thats enough for me

Just get my Z115.... do we really need dvd-rw drive ?

a little

welcome to the club
not bad price for portable notebook

honestly speaking, i rarely use optical drive on my Z, i can count it, im using like below than 20 times roughly including the first time to create VAIO recovery disc lol.. today, most people opt to use just usb storage. but sometime you never know when you need to use optical drive. e.g: backup, installing new software.

I just bought a DVDRW drive. Sensonic brand (using TEAC drive). There are a lot of brand out there in the market, it's up to you which one do you like most. I bought Sensonic because of it's a slot loading drive and the design and color mostly matched to Z115 color scheme (glossy black on top and silver at the bottom). Performance wise, can't expect much on optical using USB powered.

when bring along the Z115 with ext. dvd-rw, it will add another weight and space in the backpack.

when purchase, deliming in purchase S117 or Z115 or Z117 ........

So far, which is the slimest and lighest ext. dvd-rw drive in the market ?

Basically, all the slim drives are roughly same in dimension and weight. Advantage to a drive which does not required AC adapter. Minus one burden there. Drive with tray loading cannot be the slimmest.

So far, only LiteOn Top Load drive is the slimmest but it's a top loading, not to my liking. LG is the best looking tray loading drive. Sensonic, the one I bought is the only slot loading drive. Asus is bulky. Other brand easily available in market are Samsung, Fujitsu, Buffalo. All these are the external slim drive.

My decision on purchasing Sensonic was not based on proprietary technology advantages one brand has compared with other because basically all drive have the same technology, only the names are different. My purchased was solely based on looks, color and practicality, not the extra goodies (software) bundled and brand influence.

Any one using cw16 and get blue screen?

I got it many times already, like once a week on average, I wonder what is wrong? My friend said his Toshiba is acting like that as well, using same operating system, 64 bit Win7 home premium, he reformat a few times, problem still exist, so he install a 32 bit win7 ultimate and problem solve, I wonder why?

Do you install any device driver (3rd party)? I've got blue screen thrice before I found out the culprit. I'm using Win7 64 bit. The problem was Option Globetrotter 3G express card. Seems the driver is not well polish. Funny part is... they claimed Windows 7 compatible. The blue screen won't appear as long as I do not connect to internet using the card more than couple of hours; more than that even with the notebook idling with no running programs, I'm sure I will be greeted with this infamous blue wallpaper

From the blue screen, can you identify any useful info?

Yes.



You're looking right at it prior to this

Intel Core i3-330m
4GB DDR3
500GB HDD
ATi 5650 1GB DDR5
Blu-ray Combo
Wi-Fi b/g,n & Bluetooth

This model is selling like hot cakes

does anybody knew where in malaysia this model sell? thanks a mil.

Is there any W Series users in here? Any feedback about this model?

Yesterday go to looking your mentioned sensonic drive, the glossy top seems very easy get scratch....... btw what is the weight ? so far so good ? how bout bufallo ?

Well I'm not sure on the scratch part. Coz the unit is in the bagpack all the time. I think it can stand the abuse in many years before it looks dated. So far so good, managed to burn the recovery disc set (4 DVDs) without any error. About the weight, it feel almost like other slim drive and maybe a few grams lighter because of the exclusion of the loading tray. FYI, Sensonic does not comes with well known mastering software like Nero, Cyberlink etc. Just a freeware Burnaware which can be downloaded from the net.

Buffalo, looks like other normal slim drive. Not sure bout the performance though. It comes with two colors right? Black and white. The best part is it has two years warranty. Size wise, slimmer than ordinary slim tray loader, maybe you can take a look on LG? But could not find more color choices, only silver available.
