External DVD drives are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Some models are small and portable, while others are larger and designed for desktop use. External DVD drives also vary in terms of their features. Some models offer basic read and write functionality, while others include additional features such as Blu-ray support or the ability to burn multiple discs at once.
