ASUS Portable External DVD Burner Optical Disc 8x Speed Re-Writer Drive

The ASUS SDRW-08D2S-U/BLK/G/AS is a DVD burner that connects through USB and is easy to carry. It offers a dependable way to back up files, share media, or create physical archives wherever you work. Slip it into a laptop bag, connect a single USB cable, and you are ready to read or write discs without searching for a power outlet.

Writing speeds reach up to 8x for DVDs and 24x for CDs, so a full project finishes quickly. CyberLink Power2Go 8 comes in the box, allowing you to convert videos, assemble music playlists, or arrange photo collections before burning them to disc.

The USB 2.0 interface handles both data transfer and power, and it works with Windows and Mac operating systems. This flexibility is helpful for classrooms with mixed platforms, offices that issue different laptops, or anyone who moves between home and work computers.

Built-in Disc Encryption keeps private information safe. You can set a password for the entire disc or hide selected files, a useful feature for consultants who carry client documents or photographers who store high-resolution images on site.

The Drag and Burn interface guides you through three straightforward steps, so occasional users can create discs without studying complicated software, while experienced users still have control of advanced settings.

A diamond cut pattern gives the enclosure an elegant look, yet the drive weighs only 250 g and measures 142 x 142 x 20 mm. That combination of style and size makes it suitable for business trips, study sessions at the library, or watching DVDs on a hotel nightstand.
