Suitable for Windows 11
The device functions fine under Windows 11. This is contrary to what has previously been stated here.

Specifications do not match reality
- metal housing
- small size
- the specifications state a writing speed of 24x for DVD while the box states 8x
The choice for this drive was because it had a writing speed of 24x for DVDs in the specifications.
This compared to other drives that only had 8x listed.
Now it turns out that this one also only has 8x writing speed.
No problem, but worth mentioning.
