Pioneer DVR-S201 DVD-R Drive


Pioneer DVD The DVR-S201 is an external, SCSI-2 device about the size of a typical CD-R drive that writes at 1X DVD speed, burning a complete title in about an hour, with reads at 2X. Pioneer bundles Prassi DVD Rep 2.0 and throws in two DVD-R disks. Prassi software offers three functions, Disk Copy, UDF Premastering, and Recording a UDF image to DVD-R. In Disk Copy mode, the software directly copies a title from a DVD player to the DVR-S201, although the software won't duplicate encrypted files (preventing you from being able to distribute copyrighted movies, software, and so on, illegally). Prassi can also write to an unspecified number of CD-RW devices, which is useful for creating smaller titles for playback from computer CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. Unfortunately, the software didn't support our Matsushita UJDA310 external drive, so we used Adaptec's CD-Creator to create our test CD-R disks, which worked flawlessly.
