    A fab addition for gaming PCs with no built in disk drive
    I’ve just bought a lovely gaming PC but it never crossed my mind that they don’t tend to come with CD/DVD drives anymore. This would be a problem as I like to import my CDs into iTunes so I purchased this drive for what was a low price from a reliable brand. It plugs it via a standard USB (no need for additional power) and works effectively and in relative silence. When not in use, I simply put it into storage. Does a great job and much easier (and cleaner on the looks) than putting a drive into my actual gaming PC.

    Slim and effective
    Item arrived quickly but it was sent in the original box with no protection. I was immediately annoyed because it just happens this is for me but imagine if I wanted to give this as a present to someone. Box is completely battered from the postage and travel.It comes with a cyberlink suite disc but I’ve not used it as I have my own DVD CD burner software. The device worked straight from the box and is very light weight with a decent connector cable. It’s looks slimmer than other devices I had before.I connected to my HP envy laptop with windows 11 and it worked immediately. At the time of writing this review I managed to write 8 music CDs of my own production and it’s taken less than 20 minutes.The instructions are useless but with a bit of intuition we can get around any issues.The device doesn’t say anywhere that it’s a DVD CD writer so I’m going to have to stick a label.The box states it can connect to a TV and be used as a DVD player but that is not true. My TV wouldn’t even recognise it.So far it’s working ok and it’s not damaged any CD like the other burner I was using before.It not very noisy but it’s makes a noticeable fan noise which is typical to CD burners.I’ll update when I use the cyberlink media suite that comes with it and when I try to burn DVDs too.

    A great item to have.
    Simple to set up and use. Works a treat every time. If you don’t have avcd drive then buy this. I use it a lot for recording and writing.

    Such a versatile device
    Such a versatile device – have bought these for multiple friends/family as it ‘just works’. I use it myself mainly for archiving cds, software and as a collector of old computers, I can confirm it works with XP, Vista and Windows 7 machines, where I use it over the inbuilt and often ‘tired’ drives these devices come with. Price is also a big plus.

    Works well, but it is a bit noisy.
    The first one I received was faulty. Amazon refunded it. The second one is working well. The only downside is that it is quite noisy. I’m not going to use it for playing movies, so it’s no big issue for me. It is extremely light and I have the feeling that I need to touch it with extra care. Otherwise, it looks like it will do the job. Thank you

    Bei den neuen Mini PCs und Notebooks sind in der Regel ja keine Laufwerke mehr vorhanden und das hier ist eine günstige Version (Markenware), um CDs und DVDs zu archivieren. Ob das Teil lange hält lässt sich nicht sagen, für mich reicht es aus. Kurze Info: Auch wenn viele der NoName- oder China-Geräte mit Adapter für USB-C oft eine höhere Datenrate versprechen, die Rate der Standard USB-A 2.0 Schnittstelle war bisher immer ausreichend einen Brennvorgang durchzuführen.

    Does what it should, a bit fiddly to open and insert/extract DVD but it is compact so not surprising.

    Se fosse stato per qualche recensione cattiva non avrei acquistato questo prodotto, per esempio in una scrivevano che non si tratta di un prodotto LG, ma facendo una ricerca ho confermato ciò che dovrebbe essere evidente, cioè che questa azienda è una fusione tra Hitachi ed LG e fabbrica prodotti elettronici.Su questa fascia di prezzo ci sono molte azienda che offrono masterizzatrori ma non mi ha ispirato fiducia nessuna, cercavo infatti un prodotto che fosse affidabile.Tempo fa avevo acquistato un Cocopa per mio zio, un buon masterizzatore ma purtroppo non compatbile con il mio pc (anche molto recente), nei momenti in cui mi dava l’opportunità di masterizzare bruciava i cd.Per questo ho pensato di prendere un prodotto di marchio fidato, è molto leggero ma le plastiche al tatto non sembrano di scarsa qualità, nella confezione oltre al masterizzatore è presente il cavetto usb 2.0 molto spesso e difficile da tranciare per il collegamento al pc, inoltre è presente anche un cd con la media suite d15 di cyberlink con tutto l’occorrente per masterizzare (vedi foto) c’è anche la possibilità di inserire file .flac nel progetto per poi masterizzarli in mp3, una funzione molto utile.Tra le foto presenti sulla pagina di acqsuito del prodotto ce n’è una fatta alla base del masterizzatore dove riporta tutti i dati dell’articolo tra cui la data di fabbricazione che potrebbe portare ad una considerazione errata infatti quella presente sul sito risale al 2019 mentre la data sul masterizzatore in mio possesso indica che è stato fabbricato a dicembre 2022, metto in evidenza questa cosa per quelle persone che cercano un prodotto recente.Personalemente non lo sento rumoroso durtante l’utilizzo e nel complesso mi ha dato una buona impressione e reputo molto utile la media suite di cyberlink che mette a disposizione una miriade di funzioni a portata di mano.Ovviamnente consiglio il prodotto e qualora dovessi riscontrare problemi degni di nota aggiornerò la recensione.
