The type of optical disk drive you choose depends on what you intend to store. Blu-ray™, CD DVD drives read discs that have particular storage capacity, and they can be internal or external drives. Some drives are burners or RW drives, which means they run rewritable disks for recording or storage purposes. For instance, the DVD RW drive allows you to store sensitive digital data on your DVDs, like backup files, videos or music. Disk compatibility with Windows® operating systems ensures seamless use with a user-friendly interface. Newegg has several different optical drives available to meet every preference.
Outfitting your computer or laptop with an external drive for CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray discs allows you to have the disc media for those situations that require you to backup or store materials relating to work or play. For work, you might have digital documents or images that don't need immediate access. Subsequently, using CDs, DVDs, or Blu-Rays as storage or backup media will lighten the load on your computer or laptop. External CD DVD drives that are rewriters and burners expedite a cost-effective way of writing, reading, and backing up media data. Given that readable and rewritable media discs store easily on shelves or in drawers, external optical disk drives are an ideal solution.

Using CD burners or DVD burners offers you a variety of basic and complex functions. Deciding which burner to use depends on the amount of data or other media you need to burn to the disc. Decide whether you are looking to record and store music, video, data or all three to help with your selection of media. CDs store less data (700 MB) than DVDs (4.7 GB), while Blu-rays store a great deal more data (50 GB) than the other two discs in this collection. Some burners are straightforward CD burners, while others are combination burners for both CDs and DVDs, and Blu-ray burners work only with Blu-ray discs. The convenience of being able to burn data or other media to optical discs gives you more options at work or home.
Versatile Blu-ray drives, whether internal or external, are practical tools that will allow you to store data on a high capacity level. Blu-ray disc storage capacity is worth 70 DVDs of storage. Saving data or media on such an optical disc provides a safe and valid backup of your information. Sometimes a flash drive or a hard drive will stop working or become unreadable, so using the Blu-ray optical disk drive to write and store your data is a smart move. These drives provide you with the ability to read and write on Blu-ray discs with high-definition content while playing it directly on your laptop or computer.
