LG GP65NS60 8X USB 2.0 DVD Writer

This slim external drive reads and writes DVD and CD media at up to 8X speed. It connects via USB 2.0 and supports M-DISC for long-term archival storage. The silver enclosure measures 0.55 inches high for easy transport. It is designed for users who need optical media access on laptops or desktops without an internal bay.

Check USB port and OS compatibility

Verify your system has an available USB 2.0 or backward-compatible USB 3.0 port for power and data. The drive is compatible with Windows 10 and macOS, so confirm your operating system version matches. No internal installation or separate power adapter is required. Ensure you have physical space for the drive's slim footprint on your desk.

Replaces internal optical drives

This unit upgrades laptops and compact PCs that lack a built-in DVD writer. It adds burning capability for DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM and CD formats. The jump is worthwhile when you need to create installation media, archive files to M-DISC or play legacy discs on modern hardware. It is not for users who require Blu-ray reading or writing speeds.
