USB-powered, the eNAU108 eliminates the need to carry a bulky power adapter. It is compatible with and supports all common DVD and CD formats so it is the convenient optical disc drive choice to keep around at home, in the office or on-the-go.

“The eNAU108 is a simple drive, designed to be a go-to writer for any home, office or traveler,” says Christine Hsing, Marketing Manager for PLDS. “Its small size makes it discreet, but its functions make it a must-have.”

Writing at 8X for DVDs, Smart-Burn is also featured to provide the highest writing quality for every burn. Smart-X is also included to reduce acoustic noise and vibration, resulting in the best playback quality.

The eNAU108 is great for backing up important files and stores up to 8.5GB of valuable data on a double layer disc, equivalent to 4 hours of MPEG-2 video, 1,000 songs, or 7,000 photos.

The eNAU108 is available in two colors: black and white, and will be available in mid November 2010 with an MSRP of $59.99.
