Asus DRW-0402P/D Dual Format DVD burner

The latest product in Asus' lineup of optical drives is the dual format DRW-0402P/D internal DVD burner. As with the vast majority of optical drives it comes with a 2MB buffer and a quoted access time of 140ms for DVD-ROM. The drive writes DVD+R and -R discs at 4X speed and re-writes DVD+RW at 2.4X, while DVD-RW discs are burned at 2X. DVD-ROM performance is 12X while the CD-R/RW performance is a little on the slow side at 16X/10X/32X.

Bundled with the drive are just two pieces of media: a 4X DVD-R and a 52X CD-R. The burning software is a surprise, not the usual Nero suite, but Sonic's Record Now and Sonic DLA. You also get copies of Ulead Movie Factory and the Asus DVD player.
