Editorial note

The Toshiba DVD Super Multi is an optical drive that stands out for its lightness and compactness, weighing only 290 g, which makes it easy to transport and integrate into various spaces. Its connection via a USB 2.0 interface allows for simple and quick use with various devices, and the included software, such as InterVideo WinDVD 5, enhances the user experience by optimizing the device's performance. However, this model also has notable drawbacks. The writing and reading speed, particularly for DVD+R and DVD-R, is relatively slow compared to current standards, which can create delays for those who need to burn or read data quickly. Additionally, the lack of a USB 3.0 interface limits data transfer speeds, which can be frustrating for users handling large files. The design, while modern, may not suit everyone, especially those looking for an internal device for a more seamless integration. In summary, the Toshiba DVD Super Multi offers good value for money due to its versatility and ease of use.
