Still a good product, from a reliable brand
- Solid
- M-disk possible. 2 discs included.
- Quiet
- On site it comes across that everything is 24 speed, incorrect.

According to our optical drive expert
The ASUS SDRW-08U7M-U external DVD writer gives you a CD and DVD player anytime, anywhere. You can watch a DVD on your ultrabook on the go, burn vacation photos to a DVD, and then put it back in your bag. With this external DVD writer, burning a DVD is easy. Simply plug this model into the USB port of your ultrabook, drag the intended files to the DVD, and the ASUS 08U7M does the rest. You receive 2 free M-disc drives with purchase. M-discs last much longer than regular discs, which is useful for keeping your photos safe for many years.

Am happy with it. Only disappointing that speed is much lower. In a few cases is 24 speed, the rest is 4-8 or 10 speed. Thinks that Coolblue should specify this better on the site. That said, I'll keep it anyway. Mainly because I don't burn that much but read more. Laptop player/burner was not always reliable with reading after 6 years. Didn't know of the existence of M-disk, but here you can burn the supplied DVDs. They guarantee storage life for 1000 years. Write once! There are videos about this on youtube. CAUTION: M disc can only be burned on burners that can, due to different type of laser. You can read M discs on other players. TIP, PUT WEDDING PHOTOS OR OTHER IMPORTANT PHOTOS ON THIS M DISK. With regular DVDs, CDs shelf life is said to be 5 years. This 1000 years.

Would certainly not have bought it if I had known the slowness in advance.

Immediately plug and play at the start, but after one day and importing one music CD into Itunes it is defective. The Zendrive is no longer seen in explorer. Asus indicates to file for warranty. I am in contact with a specialist from Cool Blue. Had chosen ASUS ZenDrive because of many bad reviews about the Verbatim players
