External drive, external power source

"I bought it because I use a netbook that doesn't have a DVD drive and I needed to load some software onto the computer. It's quite big, which isn't good or bad, just unexpected for me.

Failed burner

"This product installed easily, and works simply. I had it for 2 weeks and burned about a dozen DVD discs, with a random output disc errors now and then. But it has started this awful grinding sound, and can no longer burn a DVD successfully. This short life is simply unacceptable, but maybe I just got a defective device?..." Read Full Review »
