Lite-On IHAS324-17 DVD Writer

The Lite-On IHAS324-17 is an internal DVD writer designed for desktop PCs needing to read and write optical discs. It connects via a SATA interface and fits a standard 5.25 inch drive bay. The drive supports CD and DVD media formats for data backup, software installation or media playback. It is a new component suitable for system builds or replacing a failed optical drive.

Suits builders adding optical media support

This drive suits users who still rely on physical discs for legacy software, driver disks or archival backups. It works with older Windows versions from XP through Windows 8 as well as Linux and DOS environments. It is not for systems lacking an internal SATA port or a 5.25 inch bay. Buyers needing Blu-ray read or write capability must select a different drive type.

24x maximum DVD write speed

The key specification is the 24x maximum write speed for compatible DVD media, determining how quickly discs can be burned. Random access time is rated at 140 ms for locating data on the disc. A 1 GHz or faster CPU is recommended along with sufficient RAM and free disk space for authoring tasks. An available SATA port on the motherboard is required for installation.
