Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of LaCie 301484U 22X d2 DVDRW DL Lightscribe USB2.0 and FireWire US
Customer Review: Couldn't Be Easier to Use with a Mac!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this external burner to replace the burned out internal dvd superdrive on my iMac, running Snow Leopard. The price was right, the setup was a breeze, and it performs beautifully and seamlessly with all of my Mac applications including iTunes, iMovie, iDVD, and more. All I did was plug it in, connect it via firewire and it was instantly recognized. No setup necessary at all!
The drive itself rips discs into iTunes blazing fast, and it burns DVD's much faster than the internal drive in the iMac. The unit also runs very quietly and remains totally cool to the touch even when burning DVD's. And, best of all, it has a Firewire passthrough so you can use it as part of a chain of Firewire peripherals. I have it last in line after an external hard drive and it works beautifully. The only real negative I can come up with is that it is a little bit large, but what it lacks in portability it sure makes up for in durability. With it's handsome metal casing to match the iMac, it feels like its built like a tank and performs amazingly well too.
I cannot speak as to the "LightScribe" technology as I have not used it, nor do I plan to. Though it does sound a bit frustrating by other users accounts, I find that particular method of labeling discs rather unnecessary as it really limits your choice of blank media. Don't buy this items for the LightScribe feature, buy it for everything else! Instantly compatible with every program on my iMac.
Quite simply, if you're in need of an external DVD Drive for your Mac, I couldn't recommend this product more highly. You unpack it, plug it in, connect it, and it's good to go. Excellent price too!
