Looks like an interesting drive re quality so far.

Alright, that's confusing. When previewing the post, it showed my attachments as in reverse order to which I attached. So I deleted and put in reverse order. Now when posting it reversed the order shown in the preview Anyway, obviously the last two attachments match the log.

Yeah, the images should show up in the order you add them. I didn't know that about the preview though. I bet that's a bug in the module.

no bug.
the way it orignally worked is that when attaching them/when previewing you see that attachment boxes in the reverse order and when you actually posted they were in the reverse order.
i asked and Socheat fixed it so that when it's actually displayed (after posting) the order is 'correct'. but the order when attaching is still reversed.

Yes, but he's saying that when he previews the post, the pictures are in the wrong order but correct when actually making the post. It should be the same in both cases.

i agree, it would be nicer that way.

just be aware that when previewing you don't actually see the pics, you just see the 'Add an Attachment' boxes below the regular text box. and they are indeed in the reverse order.

It seems to like the media I like.

here is a link @ cdfreaks about this drive with lots of scans
http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=191607

Its only $38.34 CDN right now!

At Directcanada.com. Link above.

Wow, this drive seems much more BenQ friendly than its predecessor. Is the chipset different from the H10 drives?

My drive should show up on Wednesday. I can't wait.

The H1x drives use Renesas, the H2x drives Panasonic chipsets.

Interesting. I'll definately be keeping my eye on this drive; it looks pretty promising

Still looking solid on good media.

our best buy in cedar rapids just got this guy in stock

i think the price was $80

It's on sale for $59.99 this week. I just picked one up using the 12% reward zone coupons that went out (Since $59 was still a bit higher than I would've liked to have paid). The scans I've seen everywhere have looked really good.

Anyone have any opinions of this drive vs. the H10L? I already have an H10L and my secondary computer has a rapidly aging 4163 in it (that still burns fine but seems to have trouble on newer media, like TTH02). Plus I've been enjoying messing around with Lightscribe... I'm not sure if I should swap the H10L to my secondary machine and make the H22L my primary burner, or if they're pretty much equivalent and I should just put the H22L in my secondary machine and save the hassle of a swap.

Speed doesn't matter to me (i.e., I don't need 18x burning capability)... only quality of burns. I am thinking the H10L is about equal in overall burn quality (depending on the media, of course)...?

i would say yes.
