LG must have been hiring fashion designer lately to help design their product lineup. There was the Chocolate, Fantasy monitors and even Red-Ringed LCD TVs. And further adding to do that list of beauties, is the new LG GSA-E50L external optical drive.
The drive is enclosed in glossy plastic with a white rim in between the top and lower half of the drive. It look very very classy and stylish in its black, white, penguin-like glossy combination.
The design is simple with only one button for ejecting the tray from the drive. The drive is powered by a USB port. You can also get an adapter to power the drive up since it has a 5 volt DC connection next to the USB port. The drive supports every available media format in market, and yes, it can suppor DVD-RAMs. Since this is and external drive, read and write speeds are much slower than its internal counterparts. The LG GSA-E50L can write up to 24x on CD-Rs and 8x on DVD-Rs.
