About this product
This Lenovo External DVD-RW Drive is a portable optical burner and player designed for laptops and PCs, with additional compatibility for Android devices. It features a black color and connects via a USB3.0 interface for fast data transfer. The drive supports a wide range of writable formats including CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, and HD DVD-RW, along with various readable formats. Its plug-and-play functionality makes it easy to use without additional drivers, offering write speeds of 8x for DVDs and 16x for CDs.
Our take
If you still need an optical drive for your laptop or PC, this Lenovo external DVD-RW offers a straightforward solution. The USB 3.0 interface is a definite plus, ensuring decent transfer speeds for reading and writing discs. I like that it's plug and play, so you won't be fumbling with drivers. It supports a comprehensive list of CD and DVD formats, which covers most common needs, including HD DVD-RW for writable formats. However, it's worth noting the 8x/16x write speeds are fairly standard and not exceptionally fast, but perfectly adequate for occasional use. For its price, it's a practical accessory for systems lacking an internal optical drive.
