- DVD burning
- Posted by fee on November 29th, 2005
I would like some information regarding burning dvd's. I only have a CD rom
in my laptop. Can i just buy an external dual layer dvd burner in order to
record dvd's? Am confused!!!

Absolutely, an external Firewire/USB2 DVD recorder would do the job.
What laptop make/model do you have and would want the recorder to be
cheap and bulky (for at home) or compact and pricey (to use while out
and about)?
Kind Regards

I have a Compaq nx9040, cheap and bulky is fine.
Thanks for your help

Do you have any brands that you could recommend?

I believe Iomega/Lite-on drives can be quite well priced.
One drive I quite like is the "LG GSA 2166D" recorder. This version is
USB2 only. It supports Lightscribe, which I would love have.
Komplett is selling the unit for £71.00 inc p&p.

I've had very good results with Plextor brand equipment.
