I'm looking to find a USB External DVD Burner for my laptop. Where would be a good place to get a good price in Seoul? It doesn't need to be faster than 16x writing speed. Sadly I don't think I can take out the DVD/CDRW drive I have built into the laptop, because it's a Dell machine and as far as I know they cannot be easily upgraded... Question

The quickest and easiest way would be to get a regular DVD burner and put it into an external case (USB). Should run you about 60k won at the son-in plaza or terminal building at yongsan. They can assemble it for you while you wait (probably at no cost).

It will have it's own power supply so it won't kill your laptop. The only real drawback is that it is not usable on batteries. You need a wall plug if you want to use it.
