Unfortunately, DVD writers are usually fixed in a computer; therefore, transferring them to another system, or taking them on the go is not so easy. Three common uses for a DVD writer is to backup data off a system, read optical discs, and copy other discs. That is why an external DVD writer can be important. Lite-On goes a step further with its EZ-Dub External DVD writer by providing a quick way to do some of the common things. Imagine duplicating a disc or copying files with a push of a button. Did Lite-On design it really that easy, let's find out.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/ez_dub/01.jpg"><img src="atruereview/ez_dub/01th.jpg" alt="Lite-On EZ-Dub External DVD Writer" title="Lite-On EZ-Dub External DVD Writer" border="0" width="250" height="199"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left"><strong>Packaging:</strong></p> <p> Lite-On's EZ-Dub DVD writer was shipped in a standard brown shipping box.
