Includes both Mac & Windows applications. Most reliable double-layer output in the survey. Cons: Slow DVD-ripping speed. No DivX support. No MP3 encoding.

Bottom Line: The d2 DVD±RW Double Layer wasn't the fastest model we tested, but it's a solid product with no major flaws.

One of the most affordable portable DVD rewriters we review here, LaCie's d2 DVD±RW Double Layer drive is also a ruggedly built unit that held its own on most of our performance tests and produced the most reliable double-layer output in the roundup.

The d2 connects to your computer through a dual-bus interface that automatically detects whether you've plugged the drive into a USB 2.0 or a FireWire port. Its chassis is made of the same tough, lightweight zamac alloy used for die-cast metal toys.

It is the smallest external drive in the roundup (1.7 by 6.3 by 10.6 inches, HWD) and weighs in at a lighter-than-average 3.3 pounds. LaCie also offers several rack-mounting options, including a four-drive racking kit. In addition to USB and FireWire cables, LaCie packages the d2 with multiple copies of Roxio's Easy Media Creator and Toast disc-creation applications, designed for various versions of the Windows and Mac operating systems.

We ran our performance tests with the bundled Windows XP version of Easy Media Creator 7, which, unlike the standard retail product, doesn't offer DivX support or MP3 encoding, but manages to cover all the other bases. Like the other external drives we tested, the d2 took about twice as long as most internal models to rip an unencrypted DVD-Video disc to our hard drive. But it held its own on our other performance tests, scoring better than average.
