Product details

More and more notebook manufacturers are banning optical drives from their devices to make them even thinner. However, CDs and DVDs are still among the most commonly used types of media.
Verbatim offers the solution with this external slimline CD/DVD burner. This small device is the perfect addition to your notebook, ultrabook or netbook. You can use it to install software or make backups. Verbatim's external slimline CD/DVD burner is USB powered, so you don't need a bulky adapter. The drive is barely bigger than a DVD and fits easily in your pocket - so you can take it anywhere.

That was close: the GP96YB70 from Hitachi-LG won. It was the second fastest burner in the test, its noise level was within limits - and it can also be used with Android devices. If you can live with the loud noise level and a short connection cable, the price-performance winner from Salcar is a fast and extremely affordable burner.
