Review: Worth its weight in Gold ⚱️ - I bought this DVD drive after watching a video by Adam Taylor otherwise known as EposVox on YouTube discussing the importance and means of preserving data for the purpose of archiving. My main purpose for the usage of this drive is to backup copies of my PS2 games to ISO files which has worked flawlessly with IMGBURN (my writing software of choice) 🎮📀💻 If or when this drives eventually gives up the ghost on me I’ll definitely be purchasing another one in a heartbeat. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ For point of reference I use a laptop when it comes to creating backups with the following specifications: ASUS ROG Strix GL702V. CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 HQ RAM: 16GB GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 OS: Windows 10 Review: Dell external cd drive - This drive works as you would expect. It is functional without any gimmicks. It takes up table space next to the laptop which some times is inconvenient. It would have been nice if the laptop had it built in but now-a-says that is not often the case. ## Features - Dvdrw (R DL)/ DVD-RAM - 24x (CD)/ 8x (DVD) read speed - 24x (CD)/ 8x (DVDR)/ 6x (DVDR DL) write speed ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00VWVZ0V0 | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Audio Details | Headphones | | Best Sellers Rank | 59,645 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 149 in External CD & DVD Drives | | Brand | Dell | | Colour | Black | | Computer Memory Type | DDR4 SDRAM | | Connectivity Type | Wi-Fi | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (15,398) | | Date First Available | 1 Mar. 2015 | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Graphics Card Description | Integrated | | Graphics Card Interface | Integrated | | Graphics Chipset Brand | Intel | | Graphics Coprocessor | Intel UHD Graphics | | Graphics RAM Type | DDR4 SDRAM | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Hard Disk Description | DVD Drive | | Hard Drive Interface | USB 2.0 | | Hard Drive Size | 512 GB | | Hardware Platform | Laptop | | Item Weight | 200 g | | Item model number | DW316 | | Manufacturer | Dell Marketing USA, LP | | Maximum Memory Supported | 32 GB | | Memory Technology | DDR4 | | Number of USB 3.0 Ports | 2 | | Operating System | USB storage | | Processor Brand | Intel | | Processor Count | 10 | | Processor Speed | 4.4 GHz | | Processor Type | Core i5-1235U | | Product Dimensions | 13.74 x 14.4 x 1.4 cm; 199.58 g | | Resolution | 1080p Full HD Pixels | | Screen Resolution | 1920 x 1080 pixels | | Series | DW316 | | Standing screen display size | 15.6 Inches | | Wireless Type | 802.11ax, Bluetooth | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Dell - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Laptop - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 2 TB - **Hard disk description:** DVD Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 5.7 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** USB 2.0 - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special feature:** Plug & Play ## Images ![Dell USB DVD Drive-DW316, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+7pfnM7WL.jpg) ![Dell USB DVD Drive-DW316, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41uO1e1pf+L.jpg) ![Dell USB DVD Drive-DW316, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ON9nb2JsL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this suitable for a inspiron 15/5518 laptopnplease** A: I don't have any experience of using an Inspiron but if it has a USB port then this drive should work with it okay. **Q: Does anyone know whether this will work with a Surface Pro 6?** A: That would depend on what the USB voltage / current limits were on the Surface Pro. I run mine via one of the USB3.0 ports on a Dell Laptop. Unless M/S have put limits on their Surface USB ports, I don't see why it wouldn't work, but I make no guarantees of course **Q: My dvd drive on the laptop was disabled by downloading windows 8 (driver removed from registry) will this work without the missing driver?** A: Hi It is plug and play device so I think yes. I recommend to update version on windows to avoid disappointment. Hope it help **Q: Will this disc drive work with XPS 9710 model?** A: I have a 7390 and it works fine, no setup issues at all. Connects with a USBC, I can't see any reason why it would not work with a 9710, but I have no direct hands-on knowledge. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth its weight in Gold ⚱️ *by B***S on 9 April 2024* I bought this DVD drive after watching a video by Adam Taylor otherwise known as EposVox on YouTube discussing the importance and means of preserving data for the purpose of archiving.

It is functional without any gimmicks. It takes up table space next to the laptop which some times is inconvenient. It would have been nice if the laptop had it built in but now-a-says that is not often the case. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, but a bit of a lightweight. *by M***S on 23 March 2025* Good value for money. Light and easily transported. Appears to work well. The lightweight construction does make this drive seem rather flimsy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dell USB Slim DVD +/- RW Drive DW316 - Plug and Play, 8 Watt Power Consumption, Windows 11 or below - Black - Logitech Wireless Combo MK270 - Anker USB Hub 4 Ports, Multiple USB 3.0 Hub, USB Splitter for Laptop, Extender for A Port Laptop, PC, Desktop and More [Charging Not Supported](2ft USB-A) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/60743095-dell-usb-dvd-drive-dw316-black](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/60743095-dell-usb-dvd-drive-dw316-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
