From: Amazon Posted: Sep 07, 2008 Type: User Review Sony DRX840U 20x External Dual-Layer DVD Burner

I bought this about a week ago and have burned 8 discs. I have had no problems with it, all discs burned perfect. The noise actually did not bother me. I was more concerned if it works or not and it did work great. This has been my first attempt...

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 06, 2008 Type: User Review Works well, maybe a bit large for some users

I bought this to pair up with my wife's new MacBook Air and it's proven to be dependable and quiet. She only plans to use it at home so size and mobility don't really matter. But some people may object to the Sony's large size and rather shiny...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 21, 2008 Type: User Review Excellent burner for OS X

I use this burner for my Macbook Air, as the Apple drive will not work through a hub. This drive works out of the box. As with most things with OS X, you just plug it in and go. It is also super fast, the fastest burner I have ever owned. And...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 20, 2008 Type: User Review A great burner for a great price

This is a great burner, just don't use the enclosed burning software. I had the burner for 2 months before finally giving up on the Nero bundle that was included and bought the Roxio suite. Since the software change I've had no problems and the...

This was my first time buying and using a DVD burner. It works great to back up dvd's and make home movies and slide shows. The design of the burner looks great and so far it has been able to do everything I expected it would. It makes a little...

I have had this burner since February of 2008. It would highly recommend.
Easy to set up and it does everything it says it does. I have no complaints about this burner. I usually don't write reviews but this burner deserves an exception.
