Customer Review: DVD recorder
Summary: 5 Stars
Works great to upload or copy CD's DVD's onto Acer 10" netbook. Did not have to use power adapter. Very slim and portable. Fast shipping.Customer Review: Solid
Summary: 4 Stars
I have not tried the inscribing feature of this drive yet but as for reading and writing DVD's it works well. One snag I had was that with the Acer Aspire One I got to go with this drive I would get an error upon connecting the drive. It would say that to much power was being drawn through the USB port. Even when I connected both wires the error would occur. All I had to do to get past this was in the USB driver window I had to uncheck a box that let it pull more power to prevent the error from occuring. I use both wires to power the drive to make sure I don't pull to much through one USB slot. Once I got past this initial hang-up it works great.Customer Review: Better than nothing.

Netbooks do not have built in CD/DVD drives, but this will resolve that inequity rather nicely. You will be able to boot, read, and write CD/DVD media of all kinds. It works on any computer with an extra USB port. Don't try to connect it to a hub though; it has to be connected to its own USB port. It's also very light weight. I've had mine for over a year and it seems to travel well.Customer Review: Excellent portable DVD-rom
Summary: 4 Stars
This lightweight, USB-powered DVD-writer is quiet, efficient, and a must have for the Netbook crowd that need an external optical drive. The USB cord could be longer to be more useful, otherwise it has to be placed right next to the computer. But the drive works very well. It is very compact, being almost as small as a CD case and only about three times thicker.Customer Review: Nice, but I paid too much
Summary: 4 Stars
Delivery of this product was very quick, I was impressed. The unit works ok, but the lightscribe feature is impaired. Images are not inscribing. found out the unit is a discontinued unit. I could have found it for half of what I paid. I am trying to get updated fix for the lightscribe, but the software is three generations old. Doggone it!
