Okay while this is true for most, the USB unit I had didn't work on any
machine properly, even at 1x burn speed, this is why I am so glad to have
rid myself of the USB CDRW from iOmega. It plain didn't work, and from most
of the info I have found or heard, they (iOmega) is in trouble for this.
Also be careful of what you buy from Staples, they only give a 14 day period
of grace to either bring it back, or to have it replece unless you buy their
extended warrenty.
