How to use

The drive is USB-powered and typically functions as a plug-and-play device; wait for the operating system to detect the drive and install any built-in drivers automatically.

Eject discs using the hardware eject button or the operating system's eject command.

Recommendations

Use quality brand-name blank CDs and DVDs for reliable burning results, allow the drive and discs to sit on a stable, flat surface while writing, and do not disconnect the USB cable during read/write operations. Keep the drive firmware and your burning software up to date for best compatibility.
