garbage and waste of time.

The device was delivered in a non-working condition. It turned on but didn't even try to read the CD. Very disappointed with the quality control. I returned for a refund.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • I'm worried

It works. Internal optical drives

Works as advertised. It records images very slowly and is generally not as sharp as my old LaCie Light Scribe. I like that there is a switch. That wasn't the case with my old LaCie Light Riber, and I think that was part of the reason for its demise. *UPDATE* Over time I am less and less satisfied with this device. The images it burns are too dark.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Nothing

I/Omagix External DVD+/- R/RW (24x) with Lightscribe Optical

I bought this burner for my Lightscribe drive and I love it! I used to have a laptop with Lightscribe but it died and my new laptop didn't have that option which I missed. I already have lettering software and Lightscribe - all I needed was some writing software. The burner just got here and was really plug and play. Most importantly, it works with Windows 7. I bought another burner that didn't work with Windows 7 and was a waste of money. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Bad experience

Works well with Mac

After unsuccessfully trying to get 2 different new Memorex CD burners to work with my 2 year old iMac I finally gave up and found this I/O Magic. I ordered it and was pleasantly surprised to find that this device worked GREAT with my Mac right out of the box. (It doesn't say anything about it being able to be used with the included Mac! - I'm using OS 10.8.2 Mountain Lion with Roxio Toast version 11, although it worked with the older version 10 as well.) that my Mac detects a burner called…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Nice piece of junk

In my experience, this is a very attractive piece of junk that doesn't work with any of the Windows operating systems I've tried, including XP, Vista, and 7. What I've Learned From this error, one learns, that reviews on Revain.com cannot be relied upon alone. If I looked broader I wouldn't waste my money and time. One possibility that we all online shoppers need to be aware of is that some sellers stoop so low that they pretend to be a happy customer or have a friend or associate do it for…

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Doubtful

Reliable and comfortable device

Well, a short story (from the beginning): DVD burner with LightScribe functionality works well, but there are some problems. with LightScribe software other than Simple Labeler. So I had to download and install the latest disc cover app. Then it started to work! It burns CDs and DVDs with no problems. It writes labels onto discs even faster than my LG LightScribe Writer. But the quality is a little less than perfect: Even in Best Quality mode, the image still doesn't get even coverage, leaving…

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • replacement availability

amazing internal optical drives

Exactly what I wanted. Burns an image to DVD with very good contrast when burning normally. You can shoot with more contrast, but it's not necessary. The final product looks very professional.

Pros
  • There's something in there
Cons
  • For a long time

Pre-recorded CD and DVD. Based on the aforementioned performance, I am very satisfied with this torch. only one problem…
