Customer Reviews

An excellent portable optical drive
LaCie has a wonderful reputation making products for Macintosh, and they live up to it here. It is a little expensive compared to other drives, but the convenience, reliability, portability and style more then make up for the price.

Looks great, works great, exactly what I needed!
When I was looking for a DVD burner for my Macbook, there was only one choice: LaCie. I was looking for something that needed no external power, required no additional drivers, and FireWire preferred since all my USB ports are eaten up.

This burner fits the bill, and does it wonderfully. Burns great, and the LightScribe is a cool little bonus. Definitely my favorite peripheral.

Good portable drive
The weight makes it great for going places with. Rip speed is slower than I expected, but I'm overall happy with it.
