SDRW 0804P-D External DVD Burner
Credit: ASUSTek Computer Inc., Taiwan
This external slim DVD burner features leading-edge data storage and duplication capabilities. Its design stands out in the crowd of today’s generic external DVD burners with a tailored modern design of simple cuts and colors. Corresponding to its primary function of duplication, the design takes its cue from a plastic injection mold tool. The mold-like design and details include engraved text and bar code. The aluminum casing reinforces the image of a mold and keeps the burner lightweight and durable. For increased usability and organization, the case features a disc-sized indentation on the top for housing the original or blank disc when either is on standby during the duplication process, preventing missing or scratched discs.
