Finally, the d2 managed to read 4.22GB of data (in 4X DVD+RW mode) in 9 minutes, 30 seconds, burning the same data in 13 minutes, 57 seconds. The d2 also scored comparably to the HP dvd630e in CD Audio tests, ripping 74 minutes, 35 seconds of music in 3 minutes, 47 seconds and burning the same music in 3 minutes, 17 seconds. In double-layer DVD tests, the d2 ripped a 7.9GB video file in 17 minutes, 33 seconds and burned the same file in 45 minutes, 15 seconds-very similar to the HP dvd630e's score (Iomega's Super DVD proved much faster in DL performance). In 8X DVD-R mode, the same burn took 8 minutes, 34 seconds-faster then the HP dvd630e's time. The d2 burned that same 4.4GB file in just 6 minutes, 8 seconds-identical to the performance of the Iomega Super DVD. That's a little slower than the Iomega Super DVD's time but identical to that of the HP dvd630e. The d2 ripped a 4.4GB video in 9 minutes, 7 seconds.

While the LaCie d2 DVD+/-RW with LightScribe did not excel in any particular area, it generally performed on a par with other drives in its class. Otherwise, this assortment of tools should cover most general-purpose CD and DVD multimedia projects. Video-editing support is weak in this bundle (for example, the Asus DRW-1608P includes Ulead DVD MovieFactory 3.0 Suite SE), so aspiring Hollywood types might opt for a separate editing package. Mac users receive Toast 6.0 Lite (Mac OS 10.2.3 and higher), LaCie LightScribe Labeler (Mac OS 10.3.2 or higher), and Toast 5.2.2 Lite (Mac OS 9.2).

PC users receive Roxio's Easy Media Creator 7.0 Suite (Windows 2000/XP), Label Creator, and Easy CD & DVD Creator 6.2 (Windows 98 SE/Me).

The LaCie d2 DVD+/-RW with LightScribe also provides a suite of software. Of course, you'll need LightScribe-compatible discs, and you'll need to burn the label side as a separate step (you must flip the disc over after the data has been written), but a well-designed label burned to the disc can give the completed media a very professional look-a real plus for business users. One uniquely interesting feature of the d2 is its LightScribe capability, which allows the drive to burn the "label side" of the disc. You can also move the LaCie d2 between PCs. This makes it extremely handy for video recording, photo scrapbooking, music projects, or other multimedia projects. The LaCie d2 DVD+/-RW with LightScribe offers complete support for all popular disc formats except for double-layer DVD-R.
