Asus SDRW-08U7M-U Externe CD / DVD Speler en Brander Zilver

As soon as it's plugged in, it's ready to go. It's just a shame that it requires two USB ports. In terms of construction, however, it's a lightweight. We'll have to wait and see.

Can record or play CDs. I use for music CD ripping into a PC, to be down loaded onto a hard drive. Can also make burn CDs on quality Maxell CD-R music blanks.

Works getting right out of the box, fast and quiet.

ZenDrive U7M offers read and write speeds of up to 8x for DVDs and up to 24x for CDs. It also comes bundled with user-friendly software, such as CyberLink Power2Go 8 and Nero BackItUp, enhancing its functionality for data backup and disc encryption. I found the performance is within said specifications. The drive is also very compact and easy to carry with you. It's also quiet and can be used in a Library setting without an issue.

Zendrive USB dvd/cd does exactly what I needed. Easily connects to my Windows 11 pro laptop. Reads and write fast.
