LaCie has announced the shipping of its new Portable DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe. The drive was designed exclusively for LaCie by award-winning designer, Sam Hecht, and was created with a focus on pure design. Measuring in at less than one inch tall, and one pound in weight the FireWire or USB 2.0 bus-powered LaCie Portable DVD±RW Drive offers true mobility for Mac, Windows or Linux operating systems.
“Design and functionality have always been key elements when developing new product families,” said Anne Bordet, LaCie Product Manager. “Burning professional-looking CD/DVDs in any work environment is made easy through Sam Hecht's simple and elegant design coupled with bus-power, LightScribe labeling and a complete software suite.”
With a slim drive that screams portability, creating your own DVD/CD while on the go has never been so easy. The USB 2.0 version comes bundled with Easy Media Creator Suite 9 for Windows, while the FireWire version comes with Toast 8 Titanium, the must-have multimedia burning solution for the Mac OS. Both versions provide a powerful source to help end-users create and burn their photos, music or videos to share, or back up with ease to any double layer DVD±R, DVD±R/RW, and CD-R/RW.
The portable DVD±RW drive is equipped with LightScribe – an innovative technology that allows you to burn silkscreen-quality labels directly onto CDs and DVDs with a laser instead of a printer. LightScribe uses a combination of your CD/DVD drive, specially coated discs (sold separately), and enhanced disc-burning software to produce personalized, precise images. The result is an impressive professional-looking label composed of art, text, or photos from your own creation.
