This was a big help to me to help reinforce my thoughts on how to set up the cables etc. and help my confidence in hooking up and installing my machine. I hope it isn't offensive coming from a white dude saying that Asian Indians are really superb with technology (better than white dudes like me). When I heard your Asian Indian accent I was thinking "Awesome, now I know *THIS* dude KNOWS what he is talking about!!!" Thanks brother, God bless you and your loved ones. You are a lifesaver Bro.
Hello, I needed one, only for reading CD and DVD. Finally it will allow me to also save my photos and videos. Based on your advice, I think I will buy this one 👍. Thank you for your video 🙏
I bought this unit...it does both...and then some...reads dvd's too...didn't try to write dvd's yet...a nice unit...and i do trust Asus company...i had/have many pc parts from Asus...a trustworthy company thus far...Peace
Is there a cable included with mini usb or whatever the port is on the drive, and then a normal usb a in the other end ? You said something about having 2 usb a's on the computer to fully use it, not sure what you mean with that. Why do you need 2? One of the cables you showed that came along with it is a usb a to usb a, how do you connect this to the device? It doesnt fit in the port on the device.
i hav a very important question: putting aside the noise it makes during ripping/burning, is there any noise whilst playing a DVD? is it as bad as the sound i heard during the burning process? thank u
man, Im deciding on the Asus ZenDrive U9M OR the ZenDrive U7M and I cant find too many differences. It looks like the U7M reads and writes DVD-RAM. Not sure if I would ever use that, though. Anyone see any other differences?
Hello my friend, I thank you with all my heart for all that you offer..... I want to consult you. I want to buy an external DVD writer that combines quality, shape, durability and speed. It reads several layers in the disc without problems. Which brand do you recommend? Which model?
A question, my dear brother, please, is it necessary to install two USB ports on the computer, because I bought this device from Egypt and only one cable is attached to it, a USB 3 port, the other port is Type C, and the other port is a 5pin port on the letter Y, which is installed on the DVD. I thank you very much, my dear brother.؟؟
I'm sorry if this has been asked already but, I am having a difficult time understanding if i can burn videos on this. I transferred my photos from cannon powershot sd1300 is,still trying to get the videos to show up. I have a video of my mom 3 months before shr passed away and i kept it from my dad gor fear it might upset him more. Sorry i did that. He wants to see it. So now I'm scrambling to figure all this out. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks ❤i have a asus zenbook 13
You can connect the ZenDrive U9M to a phone if you have 1. Android and 2. an OTG cable. The LG GP65NB60 doesn't come with a Y cable so that's not possible on it. Overall I prefer the ZenDrive U9M over the LG GP65NB60 because of the USB-C cable.
Rubbish never told me anything I wanted to know? Bought Asus ZenDrive V1M very short cable only the one built I have DeskTop Computer Windows 11 I just gave you Information for Nothing

Hello! I love your video... I have one of these coming from Wal-Mart as my new computer does not come with a DVD burner. Thank you and I subscribed!
Thank you for this review.
Hi Tenpire, This is an awesome video. Thanks! Can you use this drive to play game discs/ dvds?
Yes for both
@@Tenpire What about CD's?...does it read/write cd's too?
@@danwithjesus I would like to know this answer also

Would be good if you actually played a dvd on it, as mine is telling me there's no software to play the DVD movie on my computer.
Helpful to the Point Thank you.

i hav a very important question: putting aside the noise it makes during ripping/burning, is there any noise whilst playing a DVD?
is it as bad as the sound i heard during the burning process?
thank u
Unfortunately, this drive does not work with Apple computers with USB-C (MacBook Air 2019 + and MacBook Pro 2018 +).
someone got it to work with a usb hub connected, ive heard
man, Im deciding on the Asus ZenDrive U9M OR the ZenDrive U7M and I cant find too many differences. It looks like the U7M reads and writes DVD-RAM. Not sure if I would ever use that, though. Anyone see any other differences?
The only other difference between the two is that the U9M also includes a USB-C cable and an additional gold color.
me too bro and ZenDrive U7M has a 16x VCD Playback read speed vs 10x ZenDrive U9M
Which one do I buy ??? this or an LG ??
which is better?
