Most potable external optical drives are not really portable because they need external AC power. This portable slim external DVD +/-RW & CD-RW drive is really portable since it does not need any external AC power: It is powered from USB ports, and also comes with an extra power cable to get extra power from pS/2 keyboard port or another USB port. This makes this drive a real portable drive.

With high-performance USB 2.0 interface, the Slim DVD +/-RW & CD-RW allows data accessing or burning CDs at 480Mbps speed. Once the drive is connected to a computer, a proper protocol/drivers will automatically load and provide instant access.

The DVD drive requires 5V 400mA- 800mA power. One USB port may not supply enough power, so it also comes with an extra power cable to get extra power from PS/2 keyboard ports or another USB port.
