Verbatim Slimline External CD/DVD Writer
The Verbatim Slimline External CD/DVD Writer is a sleek, portable optical drive designed to bring CD and DVD writing capability back to modern laptops, ultrabooks or desktops—even those that have ditched built-in drives. With a slim (just 11 mm thick) brushed-metal enclosure and lightweight build (approx. 237 g), it slips easily into a laptop bag or workspace without adding bulk.
Connectivity is convenient and future-proof: the drive features a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface with a USB-C connector (and a USB-C to USB-A cable included), ensuring fast data transfer and wide compatibility with both newer and legacy systems. Power is drawn directly from the USB port—no external power supply required.
In terms of performance, the drive supports reading and writing a broad array of formats: it writes DVD±R at up to 8× speed, DVD±R DL at up to 6×, CD-R/RW at up to 24×, and supports standard 12 cm and mini 8 cm discs.
Beyond routine use, this writer is fully M-Disc™ compliant—ideal for archiving important data that needs longevity and stability. It comes bundled with Nero Burn & Archive software (Windows only) to handle disc spanning, media home backup and secure-disc encryption.
Whether you’re installing software, backing up files, burning multimedia discs or reviving older physical media, the Verbatim Slimline External CD/DVD Writer offers a practical solution. It combines compact portability, robust format support and dependable archiving features in one refined package. In short: if your computer lacks a built-in optical drive (or you simply want a high-quality external one), this model from Verbatim delivers performance and convenience without compromise.
