Netbooks Accessory: Logitec CD/DVD ROM Drive
We all know that one of the things that separate netbooks apart from regular laptops is the lack of optical disc drive. Though some netbooks like the EEE PC 1004DN already has. Now the main disadvantage of missing an optical drive is the ease of installing operating systems that are only available on discs. And not because you can always work it around with Live USB installers, we can’t deny that we miss optical disc.
Now Logitec is launching an external optical drive for netbooks. The device will cost $56 when it ships in October. There will be 3 flavors of black, silver and red as well. Unlike other external drives that comes in ‘push-push’ design, this one comes in a classic clamshell type. The device is also USB-powered.
The thing is, it won’t let you burn discs. The Logitec external drive is only capable of reading discs at maximum speed of 24x for CDs and 8x for DVDs.
