Review on Verbatim External DVD Writer Compatible by Dorian Bharadwaj

Not only is this a great compact burner, it is the first drive I have bought in years to offer the high quality Performs disc scanning with Nero Discspeed. When burning a disc for archival purposes, it is important to scan it for errors and overall quality. My old drives that did this were showing their age and I was pleased to find that this does just that at a good price. Most other modern, small and affordable drives don't have this feature. I mainly use it with Windows 10, but it works well with XP, Vista and 7 in combination with my Nero 8 software. When used with Verbatim 16x Azo Branded DVD+R or old JVC Taiyo Yuden DVD+R. I get very good quality recordings with this drive (although no better than my Samsung drive). Additionally, my old 16-21 year old CD-Rs and 11-14 year old DVD+/-Rs still scan about the same as the day they were made (which is what my old disc scan results agree). Of course, most of them were on high quality discs. Get one of these and find out why you don't need those expensive M-Discs or Gold Discs, as high-quality standard optical discs with dye-stabilized dyes like Azo last a lot longer than critics would have you believe, provided you store them well enough. . .I also found this drive to be well built and quiet compared to other drives in this price range.
