Great, but potential non-recognition by Toast in MacOS 9.2.2.......2004-07-18

When my iMac's internal CD-R drive failed, I bought this as an alternative. What I like most is that it is small, bus-powered (no A/C adapter needed), and QUIET. It can get rather warm when there is a disc in the drive, however, so the drive needs to be kept on a sturdy, flame-resistant surface, with papers and other flammable materials safely away from the drive.

I had already installed Toast 5.1.2 long ago, and assumed that it would instantly recognize this drive when I added it. Even after restarting the computer, Toast refused to recognize it; Toast could read from it, but could not write to it. After downloading the update to 5.2.1, the SmartDisk drive was recognized for all functions. All this occurred using MacOS 9.2.2.

Being a portable drive, this can easily be taken anywhere; there is unfortunately no carrying case with the drive, but that is not a big issue. This is the first SmartDisk product I have ever owned or even considered, and based upon my experience thus far with this drive, SmartDisk will definitely be considered for my future computing needs.

Burns Everytime Like A Dream!.......2003-01-23

Very sleek design and Mac friendly. I was able to plug it in, install the software and start burning CDs within 30 minutes. Fast and reliable this burner is a welcome addition to my system, especially after an extremely disappointing experience with another brand. Worth twice it's weight in gold~

Very nice..........2002-10-04

I know this rating is a little premature since I've only had this drive for a little over a week now but I am impressed with this burner. At first, it was a little confusing to operate but I talked to someone at SmartDisk and they told me what to do and since then it has been easy to operate with no problems.

The burn speed is quite fast. My only gripe is that since I have a Mac 10.2 operating system the software that comes with the drive is not compatible. The customer service rep. said he would send me an upgrade free of charge. Even with that small problem, I was able to burn by just dragging the files from the original disk onto the CD-R disk then I was able to burn it onto the CD-R.

I recommend this purchase.
