More and more notebook manufacturers are removing optical drives from their devices to make them even thinner. However, CDs and DVDs remain among the most commonly used media types. Verbatim offers the solution with this external Slimline CD/DVD burner. This small device is the perfect complement for your notebook, ultrabook, or netbook. With it, you can install your software or create backups. The external Slimline CD/DVD burner from Verbatim is powered via USB, so you don't need a bulky adapter. The drive is barely larger than a DVD and easily fits in your bag, allowing you to take it anywhere. The drive comes with Nero's Burn & Archive software, which includes numerous special features such as DiscSpan, MediaHome, and SecureDisc technology to help you successfully organize, burn, and archive your important files.
