QuestionHow many gigabytes does this item have? Would it be able to copy my harddrive in case my computer dies and is frozen and I could restore the harddrive?
Asked 5 years ago by 36aa.
- Answer Optical drives do not have any storage capacity beyond the medium used. A CD-R disc contains about 700MB of storage capacity. A DVD-R or DVD+R disc has about 4.7GB of storage capacity. A dual layer DVD-R or DVD+R disc has about 8.5GB in storage capacity. The actually storage capacity is about 5-10 percent less than the rated capacity because of formatting. Depending on how much storage capacity you require, a better [and less expensive in terms of how much you pay for each GB of storage] option for doing a hard drive back up is either an external hard drive [HDD] or an external Solid State Drive [SSD] as they have larger storage capacities than CD-R/DVD-R/BD-R discs can offer. Some people suggest backing up to the cloud, but I prefer not to entrust sensitive data to complete strangers.
  I would recommend:

Questioncan i use this in my car to play cds?
Asked 5 years ago by emma.
- Answer As far as I can tell, no. This question has been asked and the answers go both ways. Some people say yes (but haven't tried it) and some say no. I have not tried it in my car but it is designed for a computer so it doesn't have anti-skip or shock features (to speak of) plus, because it needs a driver, the car probably won't support it.

Asked 5 years ago by JD.
- Answer You can install a music CD into the LG 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive - Black, Model # SP80NB80 to rip your audio CDs to create digital music files in MP3, AAC, FLAC, or another format and listen to those rather than rely on the physical discs themselves.

Once you’re done, you can move those digital music files to the computer without the disc drive..^IFV
