Zen-inspired ultra-slim design
The ASUS ZenDrive U8M optical drive packs a host of features into its ultra-slim (13.9mm) rugged chassis. Finished in the beautiful concentric Zen aesthetic, it combines sophisticated design and rock-solid construction.
The perfect companion for the ASUS ZenBook or other next-generation laptop
Currently, USB-C is a feature included in almost all new laptops, including all ASUS ZenBook models. This little connector can be plugged in any orientation. Connect the U8M via USB-C and you can add media playback and backup features to your Windows or Mac computer.
Keep your precious photos, videos and data for generations
ASUS ZenDrive U8M supports M-DISC, an archiving solution designed to protect important data and memories such as family photos and videos. M-DISCs keep data and files safe for a millennium, ensuring your memories are kept safe for generations to come. Compared to hard drives, flash drives and other media, which have a storage life of about 8 years, M-DISC recording technology records data on a proprietary layer that can withstand extreme conditions, allowing you to store your memories and important data for 1,000 years or more.
Complete and easy backups
ASUS ZenDrive U8M includes a backup solution for Windows. It includes everything you need to protect your valuable data, giving you complete peace of mind.
