Edited: i forgot to mention that i use this DVD burner for both my desktop and laptop. unfortunately on my laptop there are only 2 USB ports. one on each side. the MacBook Air is sort of limited in that area. in any case, the DVD burner WILL WORK with only one USB cable slot plugged in. i think it may run a bit slower if you are burning something though, which will probably be due to the power outage limit that USB ports have. do yourself a favor and get this if you...

The drive works great, good speed, reliable use. I would say the most frustrating part of this product is that it has no power-cord and requires two USB ports to operate. occasionally it will (randomly it seems) work with only one USB port, but I have only seen that on occasion. I am very disappointed with this part of the drive, however aside from that it has worked flawlessly. I've burned DVD at full speed in both Windows 7 and Mac OS X. It is compact, and requires very little to setup, simply just plugin and use. When I installed this product using the discs that came with it in Windows 7 it brought me into this very confusing application that claimed I needed a firmware update, however when I checked on the website it said I did not. conclusion It's a solid product that works well under most operating systems.

Very compact. About a size of a double cd case 2. Very quiet for such a compact drive. Just a bit noisier than my internal dvd drive. 3. Requires only one usb port. Some drives need 2 usb ports, but this one runs fine on just one. 4. Plug and play. No drivers needed. Works great on Mac and PC. 5. A steal at $40 shipped Things I don't like so much: 1. The small form factor is cool, but the black version looks and feels plastic. I'm not saying that it's flimsy, because it's not. However, next to my new Mac Air, it looks and feels kinda cheap 2. The soft touch eject doesn't work on Mac. You have to drag the icon to eject. 3. The Nero 9 software works with PC only. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a tiny, simple dvd drive that works with both Mac and PC. |
