CDFreaks has posted a review of the LaCie d2 DVD±RW external drive, which supports writing of DVD+R/-R media at 8x, DVD+RW/-RW media at 4x, and DVD+R DL media at 2.4x. CD writing speeds are 32x for CD-R media and 16x for CD-RW media. Based on NEC's popular ND-2510A drive, this external kit features both USB 2.0 and Firewire connections. Here's a snippet from the review:
First of all, this drive exhibits impressive writing quality. It supports dual layer writing, a new and exciting technology. (Just too bad that dual layer media is not available at reasonable prices yet; we guess it will be some months before dual layer media will be affordably priced). The drive is a good choice for those who are looking for an external drive that is easy to install and connect (USB 2.0 or FireWire). The drive is able to write to several types of 4x DVD media at 8x and don't forget the automatic bitsetting support using DVD+R9 DL media.
