    Comments about LaCie Slim DVD?RW:

    I use the burner very rarely, I got it because the cd drive on my Mac stopped
    working, I love the design it thin and not intrusive, its quick and and preforms well, the only thing I don't like about it is thats it made of plastic and seem like it would be delicate for a power user.

        Nice little drive. Burns easily and reads fine. I got it for my Mac Air....the only concern I have is that the second USB cord for extra power wont reach my other USB which is on the other side of the lap top. So hopefully I wont need the second USB! Otherwise its perfect.

          It is mandatory with Netbook. Otherwise you will face problems if you need Windows reinstallation.
