Cendyne Dual Format DVD 4xand Verbatim Dual Format DVD 4x

[eagleskys]

Hi everyone

is it true that both the Cendyne Dual Format DVD Burner 4x IDE and the Verbatim Dual Format DVD Burner 4x IDE are the identical NEC ND 1300? Besides, is it also true that when both are installed the BIOS recognizes them as NEC ND 1300 and not Verbatim or Cendyne? I profoundly hope that anyone has an answer to my questions. I would appreciate any help. Thanks

>> I have a Verbatim here and it is an OEM NEC ND-1300A. From other reports, I've heard the CenDyne is the same.

>> Yes
