Description

The Asus ZenDrive U7M external DVD/CD writer features M-DISC recording technology, which etches data into a patented rock-like layer that is resistant to extreme conditions. This makes it suitable for storing photos and important data for a long time. Its slim body has a concentric-circle finish.

It connects via USB 2.0 and can be positioned horizontally or vertically. The package includes Cyberlink Power2Go 8, Cyberlink PowerBackup 2.5 and E-Green software.

What do users say? AI-generated summary

Users generally report that the drive works reliably and connects easily, reading and writing CDs/DVDs without any problems. It’s useful for playing discs and digitizing music, and some appreciate the included M-Disc samples. However, several users point out that the plastic casing feels flexible or cheap, and some noise is also mentioned.

    The plastic is not amazing, it doesn’t feel like something that you buy for life, but it’s plug and play and does the job. There were 2x M-disc DVD-R included which is pretty cool if you want to make long lasting backups. There was also a voucher for 2 years storage on ASUS cloud but that didn’t work.

    Very good so far, I have no issues except that it makes a little noise, but it's not very annoying. It's worth it at dawn, I recommend it for recording movies, photos, etc. on a CD, but also for viewing movies, photos, etc.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    It gives you a gift of 2 M-Discs (DVDR+) to make your test recordings. Before you make your test recordings, however, make sure it gets enough power. It has split cables, 1 USB data and 1 USB power. It's good to connect both, even better if the second one is connected to an external power supply (e.g., mobile phone charger).

    It does its job, however, like with all externals, it's good to disconnect it when not in use.

    It also supports USB stick mode for use with incompatible devices (e.g., Android TVs, tablets, gaming consoles). You connect it to the device, then press eject to open the tray and then hold the eject button with the tray open for a couple of seconds until the status LED lights up. After that, until you disconnect it, it stays in USB mode and the host system sees a USB stick connected with the contents of the CD inside. After that, it's a matter of software on the host side what will work and what won't.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I got it to convert my approximately 1000 CDs with Apple Music. So far, I have transferred over 500 and there haven't been any issues. It is a bit flimsy (for example, when you close it, you can't hold it from the top because it bends and doesn't close properly, it's not meant for a DJ set), but it works great for ripping.
