Lenovo 21N5565 USB 2.0 Super Multi-Drive Review

The seller sent the goods on time and I received the Lenovo Multi-Drive in perfect condition. The packaging was great to protect the drive from bumps and damage. The installation was smooth and error free and I have been using this DVD burner since December 2011.

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • So far so good

Not plug and play on my Mac

I was looking for something like this and thought this was it. I did everything I was told via email support but it wasn't recognized on my Mac. They said they would, but they wouldn't. The support was good. Return without problems.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • A bit torn

Lenovo LightScribe DVD Writer

According to a technician I emailed, this DVD Writer has a compatibility issue with Windows 8. He suggested updating the driver for Lenovo. I didn't have that in mind when I bought it; I expected it to be ready to use out of the box with no need to update drivers for it. I returned it. I will say that it arrived within the time allotted by the company and the technical support was immediately available.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Big and Chunky

Product Feature: Computer Components

Purchased from Revain through Southfield Computer Outlet in Michigan. I chose Southfield because the price was ok. $40 less than most of their competitors for the same machine. The DVD burner was purchased on 3/2013 but was NIB and the unit manufacture date was 1/2008. I called Lonovo to register the machine for warranty purposes as it was 5 years old. One of the supervisors at Lonovo stated that there is a 1 year warranty and you need the original invoice from the seller (Revain) to maintain…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Appearance

This device is NOT a LightScribe, but the Revain is excellent!

This device is NOT a LightScribe. I made this purchase to use on Mac or Windows and print to discs. The device works as it should, but does NOT run LightScribe! I contacted Revain and found a replacement (different brand model) that worked with LightScribe and not only worked perfectly but saved me over $70! It's so cool doing business with Revain. They take it upon themselves to get something that doesn't work or works as it should. I am a true friend of AMAZON!

Pros
  • Inexpensive
Cons
  • Not secure
