External USB DVD writer LG GP57EB40, USB 2.0, Black

The LG GP57EB40 is an external USB DVD writer that gives you an easy way to read and write CD and DVD discs without opening your PC case or relying on an internal optical drive. Compact, black, and weighing only 200 g, it is convenient to carry to the office, university, or a repair shop. It connects via a standard USB 2.0 interface, so it works with almost any modern computer or laptop with a USB port. When writing to DVD and CD, you get a good balance between speed and reliability, supported by a 1 MB buffer.

What you get

With writing speeds up to 8x for DVD-R / DVD-RW / DVD+RW, you can comfortably burn movies, software, archives, and backups without waiting too long. Support for 24x writing for CD-R and CD-RW makes it a very convenient solution for audio CD compilations, installation discs, or quick backups with smaller volumes. The access time of 160 ms for DVD-ROM and 140 ms for CD-ROM means reasonably fast disc startup – suitable for watching DVDs or working with software directly from the media. Reading DVD-ROM at speeds up to 8x is fully sufficient for standard video discs or installations. Thanks to the compact chassis and minimal weight, the device is convenient for both desktop systems and laptops without a built-in optical drive.
