The ASUS optical drive is capable of up to twenty times the write speed

After DRW-2014, which is also available with a white, black, or PATA or SATA interface, ASUS has unveiled another DVD burner capable of 20x write speed.

The DRW-20B1L / LT will also be available in several colors - black, white and beige - and with a PATA or SATA interface. In addition to the outstanding writing speeds, the knowledge of LightScribe technology, the Optimal Tuning Strategy for better writing quality and the so-called E-Green Engine power management are what make the ASUS optical drive not only fast, but definitely modern.
