The Asus Extreme Slim DVD-RW Drive (Model: ESEDRW-08-H) is a beautifully designed unit which is sure to appeal to an audience of discerning enthusiast users who demand a product with great build quality and visual appearance. Gone are the days when people accepted cheap, tacky plastic drives … Asus have opted for a sleek brushed aluminum shell.
Those of you who want a capable drive for operating system installs or for a netbook (with no drive installed) then this is going to be an ideal purchase, because it doesn't require a power adapter and can be powered directly from USB ports.
Noise levels are low, and unless you burn audio or data discs at 24x speed you would be hard pressed to tell it was even powered on. At 14mm deep it is a perfect mobile option, because you can easily slide it into a laptop case pocket without adding to the bulk.
This Asus drive is pretty much the ‘perfect' CD/DVD drive on the market, you can move it between systems without the demand for a power adapter and it is quiet, attractive and well built. We can find no fault with the product and it deserves our ‘MUST HAVE' award. Asus have not confirmed pricing just yet, but we will update this page when we get more information.
KitGuru says: Asus make some of the finest optical drives on the market and this Extreme Slim model literally oozes sex appeal.
