DIGISTOR External DVD Burner USB 2.0 Slot-load Drive Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this DIGISTOR USB DVD drive for my netbook. It's easily one of my favorite netbook accessories.
My Lenovo netbook does not have an internal DVD drive, and I wanted one so that I could watch DVD movies on it if I go on trips, and also burn my files to DVDs, since the hard drive space on the netbook isn't really that huge.
I've been using this DIGISTOR DVD burner for 2 weeks now, and I must say that I'm pretty happy with it. The main reason that I chose this drive is because it didn't need a separate power cord. And that's what's so good about it, I can easily connect it to my netbook and it works. It's also very slim, and it fits right into my netbook bag.
The price is pretty good for the features, and I'm glad I bought this drive.

Sony DRX-830U 18X External USB 2.0 Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this DRX-830U from best buy for $99.99. It is quite easy to install the hardware and software. I start to use this unit in 10 minutes after I open the box.
DRX-830U comes with Nero 7. It comes with a complete software package. Maybe it is "too" complete; it has a huge software package that consumes too much CPU time. I am using 2.4G Pentium CPU + 512Mbyte memory. During DVD editing process with DV signal, computer lagging badly! It is about 1.5 frames/second. But I can hear movie sound continuously. However, after DVD burning process, the result just likes a good regular DVD. I highly recommend that you use other software to edit your DVD movie. You can find them on-line for pretty good price.
When I use DRX-830U to burn DVD (Verbatim 16X DVD-R), with full DRX-830U burning speed (x18), I fail 3 out of 22 burns with over disk recommend burning speed limit. DRX-830 was not setup properly! If I burn it at 8X, so far there is no problem! It takes less then 10 minutes to complete each DVD burning (>1 hours movie).
Someone has mention about its noise during burning process. Well, it does make some noise, but its noise level similar to a CPU fan, and most of time it is very quire! I use computer more then 6 hours a day, and I burn DVD occasionally. Its noise problem seems does not bother me at all!
It is external model, so it can work for my desktop and laptop computer where I need it. Also, its front panel design looks good! But, its indicator is not very clear to me, such as there is no power indicator! Anyway, it is good enough for my application.
Due to panel design, and software issue, I give this product 4 star! I just purchase it one week ago, and I am going to keep it!
It is a good product, and I will recommend my friend to buy it!

Samsung External Slim DVD-W USB Compatible with Mac and PC SE-S084C/RSRN (Red) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this because the internal drive of my MacBook broke, and it was much more expensive to fix it than buy this one. The DVD drive is very slim and attractive. The color is a bit darker red than on the picture, but still very beautiful. It was completely plug-and-play on my Mac; I didn't need to install any software. The speed of transfer is just as good as my internal drive used to be. I have not noticed any problems watching DVDs. The only thing you need to be aware of is that it requires to be plugged into two USB ports, and the cable that is provided is for USB ports that are right next to each other. If your USB ports are on two different sides of your computer, you will need an USB extension cord of sorts (which is not provided).
