ASUS DRW-24F1ST - DVD SATA SUPERMULTI Burner - SERIAL ATA - BLACK - OEM Bulk Drive

The Asus name has always been good to me so I decided to purchase one for my new Dell which has Windows 7. This combination works just fine for DVD formats, reading and writing. The cost is about the same as the other drives and might be made by all one manufacturer somewhere in China. The Quality is right on! Thanks

As this are becoming history it still nice to have them in computer

plays DVD&CDs well

An easy swap using hardware from the old drive - it slid into place and I plugged it in. Win 10 recognized it and worked immediately.

I am ordinarily reluctant to purchase anything from an OEM Bulk dealer, even when a name-brand product because I and friends have encountered some disreputable outfits (example: selling video cards as new when they were cryptominer cast-offs). However, the reviews for this particular drive were so positive I decided to gamble. Installation was straight forward and as expected. It is a real ASUS 24F1ST and performs every task Ive put to it with speed and accuracy. Im getting such confidence in it that Im considering using it for archiving, something that Ive wanted to do in the past. Solid build with no unusual sound levels. It has read all media Ive dropped into it without difficulty. I have not used any of the for-fee software available, so I cant comment on whether any compatibility issues arose with them but so far my free stuff has worked without a hiccup. I know many users believe the day of CD/DVD is passed - after all, the internet never crashes, servers are always available, and you never need to reinstall a program in the middle of a business crisis.

Works flawlessly and does not use much power. I love the drive however I would like them to quit putting all the info on the front so I could maintain a all black computer.

was purchased to replace a customers broken data connection on a SATA drive

truthfully I have not yet used all of its features. I have no reason to doubt they will work as well as the basic dvd playing that I usually do.

An old standard. Have used whatever the current rev is of this line for decades, I have to be close to 100 installs on this guy. Works exactly as expected, super rare for them to make a coaster. Tried and true tech.

This product works as required and is very quiet. It was easy to install with no issues. Great 2nd day delivery as well! Thank you Amazon!
