DELL U5251 24X CDRW DVDROM COMBO DRIVE

Optical combo drive for Latitude D-series

The Dell U5251 is a 24X CD-RW and 8X DVD-ROM combo drive built for Latitude D-series notebooks. It reads DVDs and writes CDs in a single slim module that fits the original bay without adapters. Buyers who need Blu-ray playback or faster DVD writing will need a different drive.

Sustained read and write behaviour

During long DVD reads the mechanism holds a steady 8X transfer rate without dropping to lower speeds. Extended CD-RW sessions keep the 24X write pace stable and the buffer prevents under-runs across the full disc. No active cooling is required for continuous operation.
