Even if you have a Mac with a dual-layer DVD burner, there are good reasons for buying a newer external burner. For example, MacBook users might be fed up with the pokey performance of the MacBook’s built-in 8x burner. A burner like LaCie’s can burn some single-layer DVD±R discs at 20x-a huge boost over 8x speed. However, if you plan on using the d2’s LightScribe feature to etch custom disc labels, be warned that any gains in burning speed will be more than offset by the 15 to 30 minutes needed for etching. Featuring two FireWire 400 ports and a USB 2.0 port, the d2 leverages the thermal characteristics of the sturdy metal case common to LaCie’s line of d2 peripherals, allowing it to operate without an internal fan. A small AC adapter that plugs into the back supplies power.
Bundled software includes Toast 7 Basic and LaCie’s 1.2 for designing and burning LightScribe labels (you must buy LightScribe CDs or DVDs to use the LightScribe feature). You can also download LaCie’s 1.0 for sharing the d2 across your local network. LaCie’s $130 d2 DVD±RW with LightScribe. In informal testing with 20x compatible DVD-R media, we found the 20x burn to be only 3 percent faster than burning the same media at 16x. LaCie offers two other models of the d2: a for $90, and a for $170 that includes the full version of Toast Titanium. Macworld’s buying advice If you’re looking for the fastest DVD burner for writing at 20x (single-layer) and 12x (dual-layer) speeds using compatible media, the d2 is an excellent choice.

Less expensive 20x dual-layer DVD burners are available, but inclusion of the full version of LaCie’s LightScribe Labeler software means you can label to your heart’s content, as well as allow other Macs on your network to burn discs using the drive-both features being unique to the LaCie. Timed trials 16x +R Burn 6:02 DL Burn 19:16 DL Copy 655MB to Hard Drive 1:32 Scale = Minutes: Seconds How we tested: We ran all tests with the FireWire drives connected to a dual-2.66GHz Mac Pro with Mac OS X 10.5.3 installed and 1GB of RAM. We recorded the time it took each drive to burn 8GB of data onto dual-layer DVD+R media using Toast Titanium 8, and also the time it took to burn 4.4GB of data onto 16x DVD+R media. We then timed the copy of a 655MB file from a burned dual-layer DVD to the internal hard drive. —Macworld Lab Testing by James Galbraith and Jerry Jung.
