IDE samsung dvd rw

Rather bogstandard sony dvd rw.

Does anyone for some strange reason still have a floppy drive?

i have a usb floppy somewhere

 

[linktoinsanity]

Blueray ROM. It can read/write DVD/CDs as well though.

I have an LG Blu Ray RW drive but have never burnt to a blu ray disc. I opted for one over a standard reader because it was only like £20 more.

Optical drives are so passée. USB flash and NAS for the win. For the odd occasion I need to dig some date off of a shiny slab of plastic I use the noisy slot in the laptop over LAN

Seriously, I still have floppy drives about at work. Some of the equipment I use needs to be flashed sometimes and floppies + DOS are far more convenient than some of the flakey workarounds

DVDRW for me, although as others have stated, it doesn't see a lot of use nowadays!

 

[Tokin]

DVD-RW as well.

I'm down to 1 slim external USB powered dvdrw shared between my 3 PC's on the very rare occasion I have to use old fashioned optical media!

Nearly forgot I've got one in my MacBook pro to, only used that once for initial OSX install

A LG DVD RW

samsung blu ray drive, connected pc to my TV to watch blu ray movies, works great!

 

[ahenners]

Pioneer DVD-RW drive but rarely use it unless installing something or watching a movie. Used to have one of the first LG blu ray burners but never used that much and sold it.

Just a boring dvd-rw for now, Starting to think about maybe buying a BD-rom at some point but still not sure lol

Standard DVD-rw for me. I've had no reason to move to BD.
