Summary: I had a hard time finding an external DVD drive with Lightscribe capabilities. Almost seemed to good to be true for the price. Works good for me. Yes Lightscribe does take a lot of time, but at least I can put a label on my disc when I want them to look good that won't cause problems for using the disc.
Summary: I bought this after upgrading to Windows 7 on my Vista desktop obliterated my drive's Lightscribe capabilities. This device works great and is fairly inexpensive for what it does. It does use two USB ports, so make sure you have those available before purchasing. Happy with my purchase.
