These new disc "Look" like standard DVD/Blu-Rays, but hold a TREMENDOUS amount of data (from the standard DVD/Blu-Ray, that is). -- In fact, the BDXL's presently listed here (on Amazon), made by Verbatim, have a capacity of 100GB (Wow!, is right) - you can store (and Back-Up) a TON of data on these! (PS/BTW - the only drawback presently is that they are EXTREMELY expensive!! at present $20 bucks, PER disc!!) But overall the value of these new disks is NOT just in the large capacity, but in the new "tech" called M-DISC that allows you to stably & safety store your data for VERY LONG extended periods of time - with claims up to 100 YEARS (Wow! Is right). (But who is going to be around still to test and confirm this?!?, Right?!?) But, regarding this question (of BDXL's), I called the OWC tech support (the makers of this drive) today, and the Tech ASSURED me that this drive SHOULD burn to the Verbatim BDXL discs.... .....He said primarily because BDXL are no different than the standard BD-R Discs (except that the BDXL's just have an added "layer" 3 total), PLUS, this drive SHOULD burn to up to the higher 4 layers anyway. In summary, all should be able to burn to the new 100GB M-DISC platters - Enjoy!! **Q: The stated size: "10 x 9.2 x 5 inches" can't be correct. what are the actual wxhxd, please?** A: It holds my LG mdisk (OpticalDrive) perfectly.Outside size 6.5 wide, 2.25 high, about 9.25 long. **Q: Am I able to still use usb 2.0 with this drive???** A: Hi Harlan, You can definitely use USB 2.0 equipped computers with this optical drive! Thankfully USB is a backwards compatible technology, and there are very few exceptions to this rule. If you have more questions I'd invite you to contact our expert support staff at owcdigital.com/support Have a great day! **Q: Will this drive write to dvd-r?** A: This is the honest and objective answer from Thomas Jefferson. This drive is simply the LG WH16NS40 drive fitted with an OWC Metal Box (https://www.amazon.com/OWC-Mercury-Optical-External-Enclosure/dp/B06XRCCV44/ref=sr_1_4?). The purpose of the metal box is so the internal drive doesn't look so ugly when it's located outside the desktop casing. It looks like you can simply buy the LG WH16NS40 separately on Amazon and then buy the enclosure separately and save yourself $30. Also, if you buy this, you will be getting a warranty from OWC and not LG. That'll make a difference if the drive stops working. You can't call LG to ask what's going on. OWC probably will have no idea for complicated problems. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome bit of kit - I love it❣️ *by A***E on 3 June 2023* I wanted a fast, reliable solid state external optical drive - none of that flimsy slim thin nonsense. So far fast is what I have got with this. The reliability is yet to be proven long term as I’ve only had it 2 days. Nevertheless it worked straight out of the box with my Windows 10 Pro laptop and I don’t see why that would not continue to be the case. To echo others… it looks and feels solid and well built - worth every penny. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good quality *by T***S on 4 March 2023* Nice draw, easy to load DVDs, very fast copies. ## Frequently Bought Together - OWC Mercury Pro 24X Super-Multi 24X DVD/CD Burner/Reader External Optical Drive with M-DISC Support - Cable Matters 5Gbps USB 3.0 Cable - 3ft, Short USB A to B Cable, USB3 Cord with Type-B 3.0 Connector for Hard Drive Enclosure/Built-in Hub and More, Black - Cable Matters USB C to USB B 3.0 Cable - 6.6ft, USBB to USBC Cable with Type-B 3.0 Connector, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/412181673-owc-mercury-pro-24x-external-usb-3-0-supermulti-drive](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/412181673-owc-mercury-pro-24x-external-usb-3-0-supermulti-drive) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-15*
