Blu-ray discs are fast becoming known as the best products to archive valuable data on, with their 'future-proof' format, wide range compatibility, high capacity and their extremely long product life when compared to HDDs and magnetic tapes. Unfortunately more and more notebook vendors choose to leave the optical drive out of their notebooks in favour of slim designs. Verbatim has the solution with the External Slimline Blu-ray Writer. This little device is what you need if you own a notebook, ultrabook or netbook or other device that does not include a Blu-ray Writer. Use it to create a back-up of all the important files that you don't want to lose, family pictures, videos, accounting document etc. The Verbatim External Slimline Blu-ray Writer is USB powered so no power adapter is needed. It is barely larger than a Blu-ray disc itself, so it is easy to transport, meaning you never have to go anywhere without it! The drive comes with Nero Burn and Archive software* which includes numerous special features including DiscSpan, MediaHome and SecureDisc Technology to help you successfully organise, burn and archive your important files.
