ASUS ZenDrive U8M Ultra-Slim External DVD Writer
USB-C Connectivity8X DVD BurnM-DISC ArchivalOnly 13.9 mm Thin
The ASUS ZenDrive U8M (SDRW-08U8M-U, part number 90DD0295-M29000) is an ultra-slim external DVD writer in a gold finish that connects over modern USB-C and burns CDs and DVDs at up to 8X. At just 13.9 mm thick it slips into a laptop bag, and a bundled USB-C to USB-A adapter means it works with almost any current or older machine. It is the ideal way to add disc reading and writing to a thin-and-light laptop or a mini PC that has dropped the optical drive. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Before you buy
The drive is bus-powered over USB-C — no wall adapter required. It ships with a USB-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A adapter, so it connects to both USB-C and older USB-A ports. A few very low-power ports may need extra power; use a powered port or hub if a disc fails to spin up.

M-DISC 1,000-Year Archival
Burn to M-DISC media to lock data into a rock-like layer that resists heat, humidity and light, preserving photos and records for up to 1,000 years.
Ultra-Slim & Secure
At 13.9 mm and 235 g it is genuinely portable, and bundled Disc Encryption software can password-protect the discs you burn.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
The U8M is the USB-C evolution of ASUS ZenDrive slim writers — a better match for current laptops than older USB-A-only models, while still bundling an adapter for legacy ports. This gold finish adds a bit of style without changing the capable internals. Explore the full external optical writers range if you need Blu-ray support.
Buyer's Guide
Buy it if
You have a modern USB-C laptop and want a slim, cable-powered drive to read and burn CDs/DVDs, with an adapter for older ports included.
Skip it if
You need Blu-ray reading or writing — the U8M handles DVD and CD only. Choose an external Blu-ray writer instead.
Also consider
The same U8M in black or silver if gold is not your style, or an external Blu-ray writer for high-capacity archiving.
