As notebooks get smaller and smaller these days, manufacturers tend to omit the optical disc drive, leaving users with no choice but to pick up an external optical drive instead. Brando has just made available its USB Portable DVD Multi Drive that will probably do whatever job you throw at it quietly and without fuss, although I don’t think the $78 price tag sits down very nicely with me. Nonetheless, below are additional specifcations :-
