Newest Slim External DVD Writer From ASUS

Did you remember the slim external DVD writer from Teac ? Today, ASUS just announced their new slim external DVD writer dubbed the Extreme Slim External DVD-RW Drive.

With the measuring just 14mm thick , it has a brushed aluminum finish, a USB 2.0 connection interface, a 1MB of buffer memory and is capable of providing write speeds of up to 8x for DVD-R/+R/+RW, 6x for DVD-RW and DVD-R/+R DL, 5x for DVD-RAM, 24x for CD-R and 16x for CD-RW.

It makes optical media accessible and effortless, fitting easily into any bag. The Extreme Slim External DVD-RW offers a high degree of portability, with its 14mm profile and lightweight construction. This extends full DVD read and write data and content handling to any Windows PC, being particularly helpful to users of netbooks, as those computers often do not have a built-in optical drive.

Unfortunately, there is no word for pricing and the release date yet.
