Frequently asked questions
What is a magneto-optical drive?
A drive that writes rewritable optical cartridges, long used for archives in medical, legal and industrial systems. The drive and cartridge capacities have to match, such as 5.2GB media in a 5.2GB drive.
Do external optical drives need separate power?
Slim USB drives usually run on USB power alone. Some draw more than one port supplies and need a second USB connection or an adapter.
