I used a DataFrame XP40 for about 10 months, then it broke. I sent it back
for repair, via the dealer. It took about 3 months and several phone calls to
get it back. It worked fine for about 6 months, then failed again. I got it
repaired again in about 3 weeks, but bought a CMS SD43 for use and am still
using it after about six months. The XP40 was clearly faster, but the CMS
is cheaper and makes a less intrusive sound (not quieter, but less bothersome).
