4.0 out of 5 stars Great for my Wifes Acer Netbook, March 30, 2009
By j-rob-82 (Virginia) - See all my reviews
The reason for four stars is merely the price and quality. Seventy bucks is somewhat steep for a drive that is kind of cheap feeling and the eject disc button is manual and not electronic kind of what is in some laptops. As long as your not rough with it than it should last but the feel of it just shows otherwise. Then again it requires no power supply but it does require two USB ports though you might be able to run with one. The size is about half of a 8.9 inch netbook my wife owns. The biggest surprise I had was when I got it out of the package and it was light and smaller than I even hoped. My wife can fit this in her netbook case which anyone with a netbook knows that not having a disc drive can be an inconvenient one. This is probably one of the best options for small and portable without being too bulky. Great disc drive that does what it should do.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well, compact and reasonably priced, April 21, 2009
By M. Rainey (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this to go with my Acer Aspire One Netbook. I previously purchased a slim POWERED DVD Burner, thinking it would be better for it to run on it's own power and not drain the computer battery. A few drawbacks with that were. It makes the computer less portable (because you need to plug in the DVD)and a little cumbersome dealing with all of the cords, as well as they take up additional space in your bag.

I like this because it is powered from your laptop/PC. It works well and is compact. It seems to be well made (I like Samsung products to begin with). The only negitives are that the included software (Nero) doesn't work and is riddled with spy ware programs. I was better off downloading "BurnAware" for free from [...]. Also, beware, this DVD Burner takes up two USB slots in your computer.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hardware great - software, not so great!, May 26, 2009
By Mark Papierski (Wheaton, IL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The DVD-writer worked fine, but I intended to use it to play DVD's on my new netbook, as well. However, the software included with the unit did not play DVD's without an upgrade in the software that was included with the unit. The software upgrade was more expensive that the DVD-writer unit, so I returned it for a full refund! Thanks Amazon.com for standing behind the product, but I felt that you could have done a better job matching up the Samsung netbook with the equipment and software needed to playback DVD's.
