USB BluRay burner for Macs
Category: accessoriesBy: Matthias Bauer
Amex Digital brings a portable BluRay burner for PC & Apple laptops on the market.
Amex Digital fulfils a desire of some MacBook / MacBook Pro owners, which Apple refused so far. The manufacturer presented an external BluRay burner for Macs. The device gets connected an USB port and it gets its power from this connector as well. The burner also works with Windows XP & Windows Vista and is therefore for all laptops suited.
The drive writes on BD-RE / -R single layer discs with 2x speed and reaches 1x speed when writing on dual layer discs. The portable disc drive burns normal DVD discs with 4x to 8x speed.
The portable Amex Digital Super Multi Drive costs $ 289 (~€ 215).
