In conclusion this new Iomega drive is a great buy for those of you who need to burn CDs on the road. As it comes with all needed software it's a complete solution. Its burning speed is correct and its reliability will help you to concentrate on your work and not on the burning. However the drive is a little bit expensive compared to conventional burners that are faster and it's provided with an old release of Adaptec Easy CD Creator. Burn, baby, burn says the add of Iomega, so if you need to burn CD on the road this Iomega external CD recorder is probably the perfect product for that kind of need.
