5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent portable optical drive, May 24, 2008

This review is from: LaCie 301231 Firewire Slim DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe Design by Sam Hecht (Personal Computers)
LaCie has a wonderful reputation making products for Macintosh, and they live up to it here. It is a little expensive compared to other drives, but the convenience, reliability, portability and style more then make up for the price.

3.0 out of 5 stars No DVD player option on MacBook Pro, February 23, 2009
This review is from: LaCie 301231 Firewire Slim DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe Design by Sam Hecht (Personal Computers)
Lightscribe took 17 minutes to perform one burn. Looks nice! I created some nice artwork to label some CDs for sale. Possibly too much info?? I dunno. Obviously, I just can't plan on doing anything more than an occasional use of this option - not that much time to burn.

Worse is that my Macbook pro DVD player software will not recognize this drive. Not even to play any sort of DVD video. Macbook only will see this drive as a fully functional CD -RW, and DVD-RW for storage purposes only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Looks great, works great, exactly what I needed!, October 25, 2008

This review is from: LaCie 301231 Firewire Slim DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe Design by Sam Hecht (Personal Computers)
When I was looking for a DVD burner for my Macbook, there was only one choice: LaCie. I was looking for something that needed no external power, required no additional drivers, and FireWire preferred since all my USB ports are eaten up.

This burner fits the bill, and does it wonderfully. Burns great, and the LightScribe is a cool little bonus. Definitely my favorite peripheral.
