Product works very well, very easy to use, playback speed up to par. Nice design. It's very easy to use and has a very fast playback speed, but you need 2 usb plugs to connect it to your computer.
Does the job, but twice, on 2 different DVDs, it started doing start/stop sequences every 2 seconds; once for 2 minutes, the second time for less than a minute. I don't know if this is due to the burner, the DVD-R or my files? But the disc is burned and readable. So ... it's fine.
additional hardware for laptops without a drive.
gives some autonomy and flexibility to load programs from CD.
works great nice and compact
if there is no USB3 you need to have room for 2 USB side by side
It makes a bit of noise when running (maybe too compact, you can't have everything!)
It works without doing anything on linux Ubuntu 20.04
I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it for a long time.
Thanks to ASUS
Thank you LDLC
