Product details

External Slimline CD/DVD burner with USB-C connection. More and more laptop manufacturers are eliminating optical drives from their devices to make them even thinner. Often, these laptops replace bulky USB-A ports with sleeker and faster USB-C ports. However, CDs and DVDs are still among the most commonly used storage media, especially for archiving all important data. The external Verbatim Slimline CD/DVD burner with USB-C connection is the solution - this compact device is the perfect complement to your laptop, ultrabook, netbook, or even PC. With it, you can install your software or create backups. The external Verbatim Slimline CD/DVD burner is barely larger than a DVD case and is powered via USB - no bulky power supply needed!

The drive comes with Nero Burn & Archive software, which includes numerous special features such as DiscSpan, MediaHome, and SecureDisc technology to help you successfully organize, burn, and archive your important files.
