Lite On External Slim 8x DVD+/-RW/ Lightscribe (DX-8A1H-05) Reviews

Other than that it works fine. It didn't have enough power to run the writer, so I still have to use the power supply. This dvd writer works great. I bought it for an Acer "netbook" that doesn't have one built in. I bought a usb Y cable which uses 2 usb cable connections (one connects for data and one leeches power) and is supposed to negate the need for using a power supply for the dvd player. Some reviews I saw for it said there isn't a listing of this model on the Lite-On website, so you can't upgrade the firm-ware.

 

The downloads (manual and firmware) have disappeared from the USA Lite-On website, they were there last week. You can't register the drive on-line, DX-8A1H-05 doesn't exist as a product to register.

Comes with Nero 7 Essentials. Pros: Works fine, easy to setup, fairly quiet.

The drive comes with a small external power supply that is required for operation and a 3 foot USB A-B cable. I had to restore XP from the ASUS restore DVD.

This is no big deal. Cons: No documentation in box.

Drive is recognized by Windows XP for installing software from CD/DVD and works with Nero 7 on an ASUS Eee PC 1000H. The power jack is on the right side and the USB jack is on the rear.
