Fast and feature rich, and OSX compatible! Jan 07, 2008
By Ryan Barnhart I purchased this as my Macbook did not have the capability to burn DVDs. This drive not only burns DVDs but dual layer discs to boot, and the Lightscribe is fantastic for making professional looking discs. The software that comes with the unit is not Mac compatible and I have not yet installed it on my Windows XP machine, so I can't speak to the quality of it. But the drive itself is great. I simply plugged it into my Mac and iMovie, iTunes, etc automatically recognized it and it's capabilities. For the Lightscribe to work you'll need an application, and LaCie offers a free one on their website. They even have a free Linux version too, unbelievable.
EDIT: The unit just died. 18 months is pretty pitiful if you ask me. Anyway, up until that moment I was satisfied but now it's a paper weight.

Good product........ for the most part Feb 17, 2008

First off, download your own burning software. Nero is not the most user friendly thing in the world, and the full blown version of Nero 8 is INSANELY expensive. If you just want the basic "burn and rip" features, there are things you can download for free that'll do that. I have been having problems with burning DVDs, but I do believe that is the DVDs problem and not the burner (with all software mind you). Having Lightscribe is a plus, it's neat to be able to burn labels into your CDs and DVDs.

Quality piece of Hardware. Jul 04, 2008
By Split160 I purchased this item with the intentions of plugging it into my computer and then using it. And it did just that. All very simple to use, and software is very user friendly. The unit looks sleek and runs silent. I recommend this component to anyone that needs to backup large files / or burn DVD movies but is not fortunate enough to have a DVD-+R Rom built into their system. Two Thumbs Up!! -Cheers
