A "must have" accessory for all NetBook users. The SAMSUNG 8X Tray load External Slim DVD Writer is designed to provide the highest quality DVD functionality in a sleek design that is not much larger than the CD/DVD itself. Simply plug it into your USB port and you are ready to watch movies, install software, copy photos, play music or do anything that you desire. Furthermore, this model supports both 12 cm & 8 cm discs. The Manual Disc Eject function can let the disc ejected even when the power is off. The SAMSUNG 8X External Tray Load DVD Writer's Buffer Under Run Technology prevents buffer under run which occurs in high-speed writing when the speed is faster than the data transfer. Because of this technology, multi-tasking is possible while data is being written on the drive, thus improving the user's productivity. Buffer Under Run Technology also enables high speed writing in low performance PCs.

Customer Reviews for Samsung External Slimline DVD-RW

Sort by:

Although there is no note of the drive being Mac compatible it worked perfectly with the latest Mac Mini which comes without an optical disc drive. Even the web page on the Samsung site does not state that it will work with a Mac! The box does state Mac! It works and did not require any installation - full on Plug and Play. Makes the new Mac Mini a proper computer for very little cost
