 "FireWire Rules" 2009-02-21
By Rick Moody (La Mirada, CA United States)
Without FireWire there wouldn't be much to distinguish this drive from all the rest. Its fast, light, portable, attractive and doesn't need a power supply.

 "Great replacement/add-on for any Mac...and I mean A N Y !" 2008-10-09
By Juan Aguirre (Guatemala, Central America)
I was out on the market for an external DVD burner for my MacBook (which comes with a standard Combo Drive), and contemplated several (Mac Options: Apple's Internal Superdrive - $250!!! -, Apple's MBAir Superdrive - $99, works only with MBAir), and then decided to Google some options and came accross this beauty!!!



Pros:

- Fast FireWire 400 connection (bus powered, which means no cumbersome AC Adaptor to drag along)

- Slim factor, which means no bulky drive to carry around

- Lightscribe, which by itself it's a wonderful add-on to any Mac, not yet offered by Apple as an option

- Great price (considering the bundled software - Toast 8 Platinum + LaCie LightScribe Labeler 1.2 + LaCie Remote Burn 1.0

- Now I have two drives in my MacBook, which means easy CD/DVD copying.



Cons:

- Haven't found one yet!

 "Can read, but can't write in OS X" 2009-08-16
By He who spends too much (Chicago)
I desperately needed a portable/external CD/DVD drive to install Windows on a separate partition of my MacBook AIR (no optical drive). I had absolutely no desire to deal with the nearest Apple Store, so I swung by a competitor and took a chance on this drive.



Fortunately, it was recognized by the AIR and Mac OS and I was able to successfully install Windows. Unfortunately, burning isn't supported under OS X.I knew that there was a chance that this drive wouldn't work at all on my Mac and the retail packaging explicitly states that it's only supported by Windows XP/VISTA & Ubuntu, so I'm not deducting any stars for that.



The only cons, aside from the lack of Mac burning support, were that the tray sometimes gets stuck on eject. For the price, it would have also been nice if they included a power supply instead of making us purchase it off of their website.



The drive served its purpose, though I'll still likely be purchasing the Apple external drive.





P.S. It plays DVDs just fine under OS X, if that was a concern of yours.

 "USB power" 2009-01-28
By Mr. Steven D. Demaree (Shreveport, LA)
I ordered my I/O magic drive from Dell with my Mini, but as mentioned, it does not come with a power supply although it has an input for one. This was fine until I purchased a Western Digtital external drive from Amazon and tried to use them at the same time. I have a problem with the Mini powering both of them. I just wish I could find the supply here at Amazon instead of dealing with I/O magic. Overall I still give it a five.
