Looking for a DVD burner, but a little frustrated by all the competing standards out there? FirewireDirect’s UltraBURN Plus will help you keep your bases covered, it’s the first external drive that will record DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-R, CD-RW. Despite the company’s name, the UltraBURN Plus works with both USB 2.0 and FireWire.
UPDATE: Looks like this might actually be the second all-format external DVD burner. A reader writes in to point out that the Sony DRX500-UL came out just a couple of months ago.
ADDITIONAL UPDATE: Jeff Questad, Marketing Director for FirewireDirect writes in to further clarify this issue: “Your update is right, and I want to make it clear… our DVD burner is built from the Sony that you correctly identify as the first. But Sony sells it as an internal drive only, as far as I know… intended for installation in computer desktops. We made it an external drive, and are the first manufacturer to do so. And we are definitely the first to cater to Mac users. We sell a Mac version and Sony definitely does not.”
