I/O Magic IDVD16DDBE external DVD burner is a basic burner with the standard 2MB buffer with underrun protection and burns dual layer disks. The weakest point of this DVD burner is the speed.
The writing speed while using DVD+R DL and CD-R disks is a bit slower than other burners, along with rewriting to DVDs and CDs. If only reading DVDs and writing once to DVD+/-R disks, then this burner does fine.
This product cannot connect by using a firewire port and it does not support DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL disks. On the other hand it will play CD-ROM XA, CD-TEXT, CD+G, CD-I, CD-DA, CD-Extra, Photo-CD and Video-CD.
The support of this product is very good. Even though they did not respond to our emails, they did answer all of our questions through their live chat service. They also have a telephone number for technical or customer support questions.
Overall, I/O Magic IDVD16DDBE will burn DVDs and CDs, just not as fast as some of the higher ranked products.
