A CD/DVD burner is basically an optical disc drive that uses lasers to read and write data on optical discs, such as compact disks (CDs) and Digital versatile discs (DVDs). Mostly internal CD/DVD burners are provided with almost all computers and laptops, however, you can also buy portable drives for use.
The working principle of CD/DVD writers is very simple. They use a red laser to create microscopic pits on the surface of the CD or DVD. These pits represent the data that is being written. When the user needs to read the data another laser scans these pits and converts them back into the original data.
The types of CD/DVD burners when classified on the basis of disc type, like CD-R, CR+RW etc. But there is no need to get into such details, and we can categorize the high-speed CD/DVD burners into two types i.e. internal and external.
The internal CD/DVD burners are connected directly to the motherboard using a simple SATA cable. On the contrary, the external disc burners are a lot more flexible and can be connected to the computer via a simple USB cable.
