What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing has inconsistent speed details: its main read/write fields list DVD±R DL at 6x, while its detailed format table lists DVD±R DL write speed at 4X Max and other write/overwrite speeds. Confirm the speed needed for your discs. LightScribe requires compatible media and labeling software. Customer feedback also reports mixed operating-system compatibility, including a reported issue with Mac OS 14.6.1, and some customers mention eject-button problems.

Customer feedback describes the drive as easy to use and reports good performance, but compatibility, build quality and value are mixed. Some customers report that it works with Windows 11 while others report incompatibility with Mac OS 14.6.1. Ejection problems are also reported.

Negative themes

  • Some customers report that the eject button does not work reliably or discs do not eject properly.

Mixed feedback

  • Compatibility feedback is mixed, including reports of Windows 11 use and a Mac OS 14.6.1 problem.
  • Build quality and value receive mixed feedback, with some finding the unit well-made and worthwhile and others describing it as flimsy or poor value.

Frequently asked questions

Can this drive label discs with LightScribe?

The listing describes LightScribe labeling, which requires LightScribe-enabled media and LightScribe labeling software. The drive alone is not sufficient for that function.

Does it support Blu-ray?

No. The listing explicitly says Blu-ray is not supported.

What connectivity and hub features are listed?

The listing specifies USB 3.0 and USB Type-C interfaces, plus two USB ports and SD and TF card readers.

Are the listed disc speeds consistent?

Not entirely. The main speed fields list DVD±R DL at 6x, while the detailed table lists DVD±R DL writing at 4X Max. Check the detailed disc-speed requirements before buying.
