This allows for data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gbps (625 MB/s)—almost 10 times faster than USB 2.0—along with better power efficiency, more stable performance, improved data handling with full-duplex support, and full backward compatibility with USB 2.0 ports BulletPoint3 : 【Not Just CD/DVD-ROM】This external DVD drive is not only a CD and DVD-ROM reader for playing music CDs and movie DVDs, but also a DVD/CD burner, writer, rewriter, recorder, and ripper.
