Users needing a simple SATA optical drive
This drive suits builders adding legacy media support to a modern desktop or replacing a failed unit in an existing system. It is not for buyers who require Blu-ray read or write capability. It is also not for systems that lack an internal SATA port or a 5.25-inch bay.
Highlights
- 16× write speed burns discs quickly
- SATA interface connects to standard desktop boards
- Dual-layer DVD recording stores more data per disc
- Reads and writes CD and DVD formats
