<b>Blazing speed makes this DVD writer a trailblazer.</b>
Always at the forefront of speed technology, Samsung produces high speed DVD writers. Enhanced and enabled by Samsung WriteMaster™ technology, this lightning quick writer intuitively detects the media type and automatically writes in the optimal speed for the disc. So all you have to do is just click to burn your disc. But don’t walk away – it’ll be done before you have a chance to make a cup of coffee.
<b>Engineered for extreme reliability.</b>
Whether it’s kicking into high rotation speed or performing low speed operations such as direct disc labeling, Samsung’s DVD writer reduces noise and vibration while ensuring reliable disc writing. It even checks the quality of each inserted disc and intuitively alters the laser power on the inner and outer sides accordingly. And to help achieve reliable writing , this trusty DVD writer tilts the objective lens when the disc isn’t flat.
<b>Low heat. Low noise. Low power consumption.</b>
How low can it go? Samsung’s ultra-reliable, easy-to-use, easy-to-install DVD Writer not only reduces heat, its unique aerodynamic frame was also engineered to reduce acoustic and airborne noise by preventing pressure concentration in specific areas. This dynamic DVD Writer delivers high performance.
<b>Windows 7 compatibility.</b>
The Samsung Slim External DVD Writer was engineered for compatibility, including Windows 7.
<b>Buffer Underrun Free.</b>
Buffer Under Run Errors result from writing speed exceeding that of the data transfer speed – a common frustrating occurrence during high speed writing. But Bufffer Under Run technology helps prevent theses obstacles from occurring while enabling PC multitasking.
<b>Speed Adjustment Technology.</b>
Samsung’s intelligent WriteMaster™ technology intuitively detects the media type and automatically writes in the optimal speed for the disc. So all you have to do is just click to burn your disc.
