My very old Memorex is recognised and usable but because it uses USB 2.0, I was hoping to upgrade to a USB 3.0 drive. Alas, this drive can only be used as DVD reader/writer. Unlike what you see in the photos, the lightscribe mechanism is not there. ## Features - 【LightScribe Function】This external DVD burner supports LightScribe technology, it can read and write CD/DVD.
