Liteon eSAU208 ... eSAU208 is a fully featured, USB-powered, 8x slim DVD writer. It is a perfect solution for those users who are looking for a compact, stylish and portable DVD writer.

Mobility is an important aspect of the eSAU208. The drive can be powered through a USB connection instead of a traditional power adapter, so the mobile user does not longer needs to rely on a power socket to operate the DVD writer. The drive will consume its power directly from the notebook trough the USB cable.

For some notebooks where lower energy consumption is required, the eSAU208 provides a "power saving mode". Writing and reading speeds will be reduced by 40-60%, depending on the media format, in order to operate smoothly on these specific low powered notebooks.

Crowned Review Liteon eSAU208: Fun And Games With The LiteOn (1420 words)

I'd always regretted not having specified a DVD-Writer in my Dell Inspiron 1200 laptop when I got it three years ago. In an effort to keep the price under £400 (and what a chuckle that seems to be today with better laptops at £299), what I ended up with was a so-called 'combo' unit, i.e. a DVD player and a CD writer. One reason I now miss the functionality of a full DVD-writer is that the laptop is the only computer I can position anywhere near my Freeview PVR with a view to pulling off the recorded files from its hard drive later making them into DVDs. One option open to me was to upgrade the existing 'combo' unit with a reasonably-priced ...  Read the complete review
