Amazon Verified Purchase

This DVD (Multi) Burner / CD Burner / DVD Player / CD Player comes exactly as advertised. Bear in mind that this DVD burner makes the DVD wars obsolete, it handles DVD - R and DVD + R as well as the Dual Layer DVDS that can hold 8.5GB. Overall, this is the best DVD burner you can buy. It's nice.

Installation was simple:
-turn off laptop
-eject old CD ROM player
-insert this player
-Windows 7 will recognize it right away as it boots

A nice extra from Win7 is that it automatically burns ISO images so it's quite nice.

This is a Lenovo product and fits a whole plethora of laptops. I recommend you check your product compatibility before ordering. I checked the part number on my laptop before ordering and had zero problems.


VENDOR:
-mine came from Brainydeal (but I notice there are a lot of vendors on here)
-they shipped fast via USPS with tracking number
-nicely packaged (did not come in original box) - have no way of knowing if product is new or not but works great

Overall - great service. Would buy again from this vendor. Everything working great.


UPDATE:
- I watched an entire DVD movie on this with no problems
- I burned a CD and everything worked fine
- I'm going to find my image of Win7 and burn it using this burner to see how it performs (I'll post on here).
