DRIVE
15th January 2007 - Lite-On IT, one of the world’s largest optical drive manufacturers, has today announced the launch of their latest slim design DVD writer - the external model SSM-85H5SX.
This ultra compact, sleek burner succeeds the previous slim design drive (SLW-831SX) with the addition of two essential features, LightScribe and SuperAllWrite. Now, users can enjoy the benefits of top notch performance and professional finishing to any disc format whilst being on the move.
“The SSM-85H5SX is especially handy for travellers and great for notebook users and not only because of its portability and lightweight design”, says Jelmer Veldman, Lite-On IT’s European marketing manager. “Thanks to its compatibility with all kinds of CD and DVD media it is a one-stop archival and presentation solution for anyone with a need of copying and storing data. And thanks to LightScribe support consumers have an efficient way of creating customized and professional labels for CD and DVD discs. That is what differentiates the SSM-85H5SX from other slim external drives on the market.”
The SSM-85H5SX will be available on the market from mid-January at a recommended end user price of approximately £73.
