Manual of product CAEDVDRW8U2
Editorial note
The Cavalry CAEDVDRW8U2 is an optical drive that stands out for its high writing and reading speed, allowing for quick data burning on CDs and DVDs. Its compact and modern design, with dimensions of 152 x 133 x 19 mm, facilitates its integration into various workspaces, which is a considerable asset for users concerned about the aesthetics of their environment. However, the product has some drawbacks. The writing speed of DVD+RW is limited to 4x, which can be frustrating for those seeking faster burning performance. Additionally, its USB 2.0 port, while effective, may restrict transfer speed compared to newer USB 3.0 standards. The minimum RAM of 256 MB and the 800 MHz processor may also not meet the expectations of users with more demanding needs. Regarding user experience, the drive offers easy installation thanks to a clear user guide and its compatibility with multiple operating systems, which enhances its accessibility. However, its weight of 500 g could pose a challenge for users who are often on the go, making the device a bit less convenient to carry. Overall, the Cavalry CAEDVDRW8U2 offers good value for money with solid features, but some limitations, such as the writing speed of DVD+RW and the USB 2.0 port, should be considered before purchase.Score details
