From one of the first names in computer hardware comes an optical disc burner to make your life easier. This SATA drive burns both CD and DVD media so you can choose the disc to use based on the job at hand. Since it works with all of the popular media types, including dual layer DVD, you can organize the burns to use a minimum of discs saving you both money and space.
LightScribe - Direct Disc Labeling
LightScribe gives you the ability to create customized labels that are etched directly onto a special coated LightScribe disc (sold separately).

OWC Notes:

G5 owners replacing a Sony optical drive will need to purchase this additional screw set. The system profiler can tell you if you have a Sony mechanism.

At this time, there is no native support for this drive when using earlier versions of Mac OS X. Patching this drive for support under earlier versions of Mac OS X is possible using Christian Moller's PatchBurn Software.

Requires disabling of hard disk sleep in Mac Pro Systems to prevent drive from disappearing during sleep. To disable hard disk sleep go to the Apple --->System Preferences ---> Energy Saver and uncheck "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible."
