ASUS DRW-2014L1T DVD±/RW DRIVE with LightScribe Review

Packaging and Accessories

Our new ASUS DRW-2014L1T was sent to us from ASUS in a large box filled with Styrofoam popcorn in order to make sure our precious cargo would not be damaged during the long trip it made from the States to our doorstep.


The front and back of the box explain everything you need to know about the features present with this drive. It is a nice colorful layout which is not too busy for the eyes, it tells you what the drives' functions are and it does that in 17 different languages. That is pretty neat even though I can only read 4 of them...


The inside of the box rather amazed me. From all the hardware that has ever been sent to me this must be the most well packed device I’ve ever seen. I honestly believe you could run this over with a truck and it would still be okay (do not try this at home). The box is made of recycled carton and the foam is a type of PVC Styrofoam.


See how well packed this is? Within the box you get the ASUS DRW-2014L1T drive, a white/beige/grey drive-front-cover, a quick install guide (in 33 languages) and a copy of Nero 7 (OEM). Make sure, as always, that you update the software and firmware after you install it.
