NEC Technologies' MultiSpin 4X Pro provides front-panel buttons that let you easily select fast-forward, fast-reverse, stop, and eject. Unique among the products we tested is this drive's audio-control buttons for audio-only CDs. Also handy is the amount of status information the MultiSpin provides. An LCD indicates CD loaded, CD busy, and the speed at which the drive is spinning.
