In real terms, not many people are going to notice the extra 3%-5% battery usage over local file playback. In a DVD playback test, after what looked like an initial 1W jump in battery usage it dropped down to average 300mw measured by Perfmon on an otherwise idle system in battery saving mode. Only files on a CD or DVD can be accessed. There’s no write capability in this mode and to be clear, DVD’s can not be played back in this mode. Here are some images of it being tested on a Samsung LCD TV. This includes some tablet PCs and TVs as long as the device can supply enough current to drive the SE-208. By pressing the eject button for more than a second (when the disk tray is already ejected) the device goes into a USB HDD mode exposing files on CDs and DVDs for access by devices with USB HDD support. The Samsung SE-208 has an ‘AV Connectivity’ mode.

Playback on CD player failed but playback PC via the CD drive worked. Image created and image burned successfully. Conversion of files was done quickly (about 5 seconds per MP3 file.) Tested: Audio CD burn from MP3 files: Somewhat noisy at 24x write speed (possibly due to cheap, unbalanced discs!) but completed as expected in about 4 minutes. Windows 8 image file burned to DVD using pre-installed Toshiba Disc Creator. The Toshiba Z830 Ultrabook recognized the ‘ODD’ on pressing F12 to access the boot menu after power-on. not for classical music.)ĬD-R used to write a boot and recover disk via Windows Backup and Recovery.īoot device. A Y-cable is provided if a single USB port isn’t enough to power the device but in-use we found it to be extremely efficient.ĭVD playback is supported natively on Windows 7 (Not on Windows 8 without buying the codec pack though) and although the device wasn’t silent, it was quiet enough not to disturb a music DVD that was tested.ĬD playback was a little noiser but still OK for H-Fi system playback unless you’re listening to audio with a lot of quiet sections. On the Toshiba Z830 that means just one USB3.0 connector or one USB2.0 connector.

The SE-208 weighs 300gm, doesn’t require any device drivers or software with Windows 7 and is powered via USB. The SE-208 is currently $30.75 at Amazon USA.
For just 2 Euro more, looking way better than the cheap offering next to it and having a USB HDD mode, how could we ignore it? At just 34.95 Euro (inclusive of 19% sales tax) the Se-208 is working out well. While I was there I spotted the Samsung Slim Portable SE-208. The old LG unit I was using bit the dust during the test so after a quick online check I found a cheap one in-stock at our local electronics Shop.

Part of the SSD upgrade how-to yesterday required buying a new CD/DVD writer.
