1 A great plug and play drive
I needed an external DVD-R drive to work with my Macintosh computer, and this one fit the bill perfectly. I opened the box, plugged in the power and firewire cables that were included with the drive, and within minutes, was burning DVD's.
If you are a user of Apple's DVD Studio Pro, this drive works seamlessly with it, and is very fast when burning 2x rated disks. I have burned a good 2 hours worth of video to a DVD in as little as 25 minutes.
If you do use this drive, make sure to buy quality media. I wasted lots of money on failed disks, and was going to blame the drive for it, but then tried using the Verbatim DVD-R 2x disk that shipped with the unit. I have now burned more than 10 verbatim disks in a row with this drive and have experienced no further media or drive failures.
I'd highly recommend this drive to anyone needing an external DVD-R drive.
